Come To Jesus What If God Designs Your Days To Keep You Running Back To Him

What if God puts hard things into your life so you'll bring them back to him? Maybe God fills our days with lots of reminders to come running back to him for help--not so we'll spend our days full of frustration and tears, but so we'll end our days closer and closer to him. This is the heartbeat behind Come to Jesus. A collection of ways God has brought me closer to him through times of unbelief, loneliness, and uncertainty plus a call for you to bring your hard back to the One who gave it to you. Because maybe that was his purpose in giving it to you all along--not to see how much you can carry but to display his glory and strength as he carries you. ENDORSEMENTS "We need constant reminders that, in everything, we can go to Jesus. I'm grateful for Christa's helpful and beautiful call to do just that through the pages of this book." --Christine Hoover, author of Searching for Spring "This small book has rooted itself in my heart, and since reading it, I've stopped in my wrong-way track more than once to remind myself to run to Jesus with my fears, doubts, sorrows, and temptations." --Claudia Barba, author of Sovereign Hope "Are you lonely? Overwhelmed? Battling unbelief? In this book, Christa speaks to women of all ages in a refreshingly simple yet profound style. She offers a glimpse into her own life to communicate the convincing message that you can and should come to Jesus regardless of who you are or where you find yourself in life." --Gretchen Fant, speaker, counselor, and veteran pastor's wife "At this point in history, things look bleak for so many. And at this point in history, there are so many voices telling us how to fix our lives so that things will not look so bleak. Never before have we needed wise women to say it over and over again: Come to Jesus. He is the author. Come to Jesus, He is the fixer. Come to Jesus, He is the comfort. You'll love this gentle and timely word from Christa and it will leave you wanting more of Jesus, and knowing exactly where to find Him." --Jess Connolly, coauthor of Wild and Free and author of Dance Stand Run

A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Children of God! What can enough is enough mean for us? It can mean that we are not going to take any more foolishness, stuff or mess from the devil! Through the power of the Holy Spirit living in us; we have the ability to say to the devil, “Enough is Enough!” No matter the situation we can say enough is enough to Depression, Confusion, Hurt, and Pain! No more disappointments to the point that we feel that we cannot live a happy and peaceful life, etc... God does not want anything to take away our joy, and He will not put more on us than we can bear. So, if the devil tries to bring ungodly things to your life, remember through the authority of God you can have the power to walk away from them, and say to the enemy “Enough is Enough!”
