A Post with a Purpose// and vlog! :)

Hey Guys! It's Friday :) So I think I'm going to post a new blog once a week on here. Not sure what day. But just for the sake of today, we'll make it Friday.
So if you haven't noticed by now, this blog site of mine has changed dramatically. It's gone from a bunch of random blogs to a blog with a purpose. What is the purpose? Seeing from a distance. Hey! That's the title of this blog already!! Of course! But how does that have to do with what I've previously been posting about depression, suicide, and the like?
A lot of times we get so caught up in life that we become bound by situations that just bring us down. We concentrate more on the problem than the future GOD has for us. (Because He does, in fact, hold it in His hands). 
The title of this blog was first inspired by a book called From a Distance. The opening verse I have fell in love with so much.

"All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance." Hebrews 11:13

I just love this verse because it shows how they had faith in what God promised them. Even though they didn't get to see it come to pass. And I believe this is how we should be. Hanging on to God's promises. I trust Him enough to let go and let God have His way in my life. That was one of the hardest lessons I ever had to learn in my life. But once I did learn it, life has become easier for me.
Right now you may be burdened by depression, suicide, self-infliction... but I want you to know that there is HOPE. And that's why I made this vlog last Friday. You are loved, more than you can imagine.
