The life of Robin Williams the nation's funny man came to an abrupt and brutal conclusion on Monday: death by suicide.
Behind the smile, the brilliant mind, the repartee, and the irrepressible sense of humor there lived a dark, menacing alter ego.
It had a voice that ultimately spoke louder than the laughter and the effervescence of Robin's personality. A voice that decreed doom to this most marvelously talented actor.
Jesus gave insight into this spiritual state when he spoke of the need for the 'strong man' to be overpowered and dispossessed by One who is stronger.(Luke 11 v 18-22).
Interpret this parable how you will, we must agree upon one thing; namely, that evil powers are forever at work seeking to rob people of their health, hope and happiness.
Take heart! God, who is the Author of real joy, peace and true fulfillment, offers a solution in His Son who came to vanquish the thief of all things good and give us LIFE ABUNDANT.
(John 10:10)
Put this promise to the test and receive Him into your life today.
He IS the answer.
Jubilate.
Ian
