Hope in the Darkness
A series of painful
losses threw Jan Dravecky into a pit of depression.
Her life fell to pieces. Thankfully, God helped her
open a door of hope.
Jan had been bombarded by
a series of agonizing losses. Both of her parents
died suddenly. Then her husband, baseball star Dave
Dravecky, was diagnosed with cancer. He eventually
lost his armthe arm that made him famous as a
pitcher. The stress and sadness tore at Jans
soul.
When she finally went to
the doctors, she heard these chilling words:
Youre clinically depressed.
Her first reaction was
shock and denial. A Christian should
never get depressed, she thought.
As she continued to feel
emotionally smothered by the depression, she finally
admitted she needed help. Through the tender guidance
of Christian counselors, Jan was gradually pulled out
of the pit of depression.
One of the greatest
insights she received was that all her life she tried
to be the savior of everyone in need, instead of
allowing herself to rely on the only true Savior. God
surprised her with joythe joy of release in
surrendering her life to His control.
