Have you ever felt like you are fighting with God, but you don’t want him to let go as well? Meet personal scholar and professor Angie Jacobs shares about learning how to hold on when you need to let go. **Just as a trigger warning, Angie talks about suicide specifics (timestamps: from 9:50 - 10:08) . 

This is an amazing story of what God taught Angie, and I hope that you were able to empathize with her and hear her challenges.  Plus, you will be able to hear from someone who has walked through the tragedy of suicide and come out on the other side.  Remember, your parable showcases how God will provide provision if you are looking for it.

Reflection Questions:

  1. Is there any hidden resentment or anger you're holding against God that you have held on to?
  2. Are you wearing this mask of strength like Angie used to? What is an actionable item you can take to not put that back on?
