My friend has been having suicidal thoughts and major depression for sometime. I could not help my friend and he wanted nothing to do with hearing about God. As hard as it was, I needed to break off ties with this friend. I KNEW it was God leading me to do it. I was getting in HIS way and he was nudging me out of it.
After a couple of weeks not communicating, I had to email my friend to share some news. He replied in a brief email that his medication had been upped and that he was going to see a therapist! Three weeks ago I was afraid he was going to kill himself... this weekend I have hope. When he addresses the depression so that he is no longer suicidal, he just might be willing to see Jesus for who he really is!!! Praise God for WHATEVER it is that made my friend go get help instead of focusing on his increasing suicidal thoughts!
