Can the Bible Heal?

by Ruthie Alekseeva  
1/06/2021 / Ministry Website Reviews

Kill me now, Darren thinks. I don’t want to live anymore.

He shivers, then rolls over in bed, emitting a long, drawn-out yawn. Blinking, he opens his eyes. A clock ticks in the corner. He spies the time.

11 am. 

Squeezing his eyes shut again, he stretches his arm out from under the bedsheets, gripping a can on the floor.

Too light.

Tipping it over, he shakes it.

Empty…what to do now?

He tosses in bed until he faces the wall.

Self-medicating with gin isn’t working. Neither is counselling.

He grasps his phone from the bedside table. A Bible verse flashes across its screen.

The daily Bible verse my sister subscribed me to.

He squints at the screen, then reads, You have kept count of my tossings. Put my tears in your bottle. Are they not in your book?

His eyes moisten. That’s exactly how I feel.

Reading the verse again, he ponders its meaning. Can the Bible heal me? he wonders.
