Hey everyone!
I finally decided to come back to the forums after my little hiatus. It seems like I have finally found my path in life; I haven't been this happy in I don't know how long. When I left, I was suffering from depression and I was on a road to self destruction. I think I felt like I needed other people to make me happy. But I have accepted that the only being that I truly need in order to be at peace and be happy is the good Lord Himself. I'm happy to be back, and I am eager to take part in some discussions.
Guess who's back!

I don't know you, but reading your post really cheered me up. It's so good to hear.
Sometimes I get lost in life too and live life for periods without reference to God. But I always recognise that his ways are good and trustworthy and recommit. An Elder once told me - 'there is no joy for the back-slider'. Boy, was he right!
All the best,
Blacknad.

Hey Jake!
I'm very glad you found our Father sufficient for your happiness- that's an awesome lesson, and one I've really only begun to learn myself. I had no idea, (of course, I'm never on here anymore,) that you were going through anything so serious. I'd've been praying for you! (Well, by the grace of God; I'm not too good at following up on prayers I start for other people ).
I wish you all the best, (and that means God, of course!)
