A nod to my inspiration . . .

http://darkmyroad.blogspot.com/

I want to thank Dark for giving me the inspiration to start a blog. I've been reading them for sometime and look forward to sharing my favorites with you.

"I Trust When Dark My Road" is a much needed forum for a discussion about depression and related ailments. I too have wrestled with depression and stress related disorders. The days of depression are indeed dark. Clouds distort a true vision of relationships, events, and work.

The title for my blog comes from my own struggles and the comfort I have in the love of Jesus Christ, my companion on the way . . . even when Dark My Road.

Right now my way seems uncertain. I feel as though God has told me to go to the place He will tell me. I'm preparing to leave in only a few weeks. I have a goal in mind, a calling if you will. My wife's job future is uncertain, housing is uncertain, money is uncertain. But I don't care. I will be leaving the environment which thrust me into the depths of depression. Stress, antagonism, demands, gossip . . . I will be leaving these things behind me in this place. I know other crosses await me wherever I go, but I have a companion in the way.

God has blessed me with a wonderful wife, an earthly companion. He has also blessed me with brothers and sisters in the Body of Christ. Perhaps I can be your companion in the way, when your road is dark. I will at least introduce you to my Companion in the Way.

Cordially in Christ,

Companion
