He was feeling downcast, so I tried to gently encourage him with several Scriptures as well as share some of my own experiences with despondency and despair, and feelings of hopelessness.

Today, I know without a doubt, that there is always light at the end of those long, dark tunnels of sadness and melancholy. And the Light I'm referring to is actually a person. It is the Lord Jesus Christ Himself whom the Bible declares Him to be the Light of the world. Therefore, as long as I have the Light (Jesus) living in me, I have all that I need.
