READING AGE 18+
NOT MY WILL — CHAPTER TWO“Where Darkness Met Grace”Amara reached a breaking point. The weight of everything she had endured made her feel invisible. She didn’t think anyone needed her. She didn’t think her life mattered. She didn’t see a future where joy could exist for her.She didn’t plan to tell anyone how badly she was drowning — after all, when she tried before, no one listened.One evening, she locked her door and sat at the edge of her bed, feeling the heaviness pressing down on her chest. She didn’t want to harm herself, but she desperately wanted the pain inside her to stop. She was tired of pretending. Tired of being strong. Tired of smiling so people wouldn’t ask questions they never cared to hear the answers to.A deep darkness covered her heart……but before it could consume her, something happened.Her phone suddenly lit up with a message from a church member she barely spoke to.“Amara, you’ve been on my heart all day. Are you okay?”She froze.Then another message followed:“God asked me to tell you… you are not alone.”Tears she had held for months finally broke free. Not because the message fixed everything instantly, but because for the first time in a very long while, someone saw her.That same week, her pastor noticed she looked troubled and quietly pulled her aside. He didn’t ask her to explain anything. He simply said:“God said your story will not end in darkness.”For the first time, Amara felt something shift inside her — a small spark of hope.She started praying again, slowly. She opened up little by little, first to God, then to one trusted mentor. She learned that healing wasn’t fast, and it wasn’t easy, but it was possible.And as she walked through this journey, she began to understand something:Her life was not her own to throw away.God still had plans for her.And even though people failed her, God never left.
