《Walking With Jesus A Daily Devotional》Day Eight

Day Eight.
Verses:
"'The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name's sake. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.'" Psalm 23:1-6
That verse above, has to be one of my favorite Bible verses of all time. That verse has always comforted me and encouraged me. Right now, I know I am struggling.
My physically pain has been horrible the past few days and that makes me really down. Yesterday I felt so down I had thoughts of suicide. Thankfully I didn't do anything, I just cried for a while. My bipolar has been bad lately because I am having tons of mood swings. When my physically pain is horrible it can make my mood horrible. So I am struggling.
Maybe right now, you are struggling with mental illness, chronic illness, pain, depression, cancer, or just anything. I don't know what you are going but I do know that God is right beside you.
Like it said in the Psalm: "Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me."
God is with you and me.
He is right there beside us, even when we can't see Him.
He is always there to love us, comfort us, help us, guide us, forgive us, encourage us, and just be there for us.

We just have to go to Him. He is waiting for us to come home. He knew we would have struggles and trials in this world. He NEVER promised us we would have an easy life. And when we do have struggles and trials, He wants us to go to Him. He created us with the need for Him. I have never believed in the saying: "God never gives us more than we can handle." Yes he does! He gives us more than we can handle so we can go to Him and depend on Him!
God never wants us to go through life alone and without Him. He wants YOU! Even if, you are struggling. Even if, you are having suicidal thoughts. Even if, you are depressed. Even if, you are mad at Him. Even if, you haven't talked with Him in a while. No matter what, He wants YOU to go to Him.
He loves you and He believes in you❤️
Prayer:
Dear God,
I am really struggling. I feel like I am walking through the darkest valley. I can't do this alone and I need YOU. So please come grab my hand and help me through this. I just want to be close to you God. Please love me, help me, forgive me, encourage me, guide me, comfort me, and just be there for you.
I thank you for all my many blessings and for Your Son.
In Jesus's name, I pray, Amen!

Masking Tape
“Well, I do sometimes wonder why we’re sent here, considering we never consented to be born. I’ll just go about living my life, I guess." A supposedly ordinary year in Semangat Junior College proves to be anything but normal for its students when a freshman gets attacked by a mysterious creature prowling around Bishan. That is just the beginning. Unexplainable bursts of magical energy begin mushrooming all over Singapore following the attack. An intern at Divyane is sent on a mission to investigate these strange happenings. Unfortunately for him, nobody told him that the life of an intern was not going to be easy. For one, there is an overly-enthusiastic supernatural fan who insists on following his every mission. Then there is the issue of the rogue mage who has been attacking the school's students and the unresolved disappearances around the island. Will Frankie be able to find the answers to his investigation? Most importantly, who is the rogue mage responsible for the unexplained attacks on regular students? What do they want? The first novel in the planned Rugged Backpack Series, Masking Tape combines elements of the magical girl genre with Southeast Asian mythos through an ensemble cast as they get tangled up in the affairs of a realm they never knew existed beneath their feet. New chapters every Monday and Friday!

A Bloody Game
Eric Hunter, a boy who took a gamble with his life on the line, soon finds out that the pay off took a very different direction that he thought. Having just awoken from a pre-op only to find himself confused and all alone in a changed world and a hospital consumed by chaos he must do all he can to survive. In a new world where society crumbles and laws are merely pretty words on written paper, how will a boy who has been restricted his whole life live now that there is nothing to hold him back? When everything turns into a zero sum game of dog eat dog, they'll find that The Hunter is an all too willing participant, but he will soon find out that he isn't the only player of this game. First story I'm posting and I don't really have a cool synopsis, sorry everyone, but this story is just another LitRPG apocalypse. I guess the only difference is that the main character isn't a hero. He's not here to save the world, he's not here to make friends, and he's definitely not here to save everyone. He's probably what the villains in other similar stories would be actually. Just writing for fun, advice or constructive critism is welcomed, writing style prone to change. Warning: Incredible amounts of poor grammar, Gore, Profanities, Traumatizing content, and cliches(I plan to have multiple main characters, maybe this is too ambitious for my poor skills, but it seems like it would be fun to try, the other MCs won't show up until later on.) The cover image isn't mine I just found it online. It's a piece by Stephanie Frey This takes inspiration from a lot of great stories on here, but I find the beginning to be most similar to Blood Lust by DefinitelyNotJormlung. Starcraft and Warhammer 40k and survival world rpg by S_Conary will also influenced this (at least that's my plan if I ever get that far or finish this) Also please stay with me until chapter 3. I suck at starting stories, but have been told I get better as I'm further along.

Or will he be stuck watching from the sidelines? Only one thing is for sure, it sucks being a side character!
