<p>Are the <strong>stormy waves of distress</strong> about to over take you?  Feel like giving up? Tired of being tired?  <strong>Hang on! Help is on the way! </strong> You can win this fight by choosing to <strong>keep on living.  </strong>There is something you really need to know.  The day of distress is a period of turbulent times that all the inhabited earth will experience as they come to their end.  You can also refer to this day or time of distress as <a href="https://www.jw.org/en/library/bible/study-bible/books/matthew/24/#v40024014" rel="nofollow noreferrer ugc">an Age</a>.</p><p>"But know this, that <strong>in the last days critical times hard to deal with will be here.</strong>" (<a href="https://www.jw.org/en/library/bible/study-bible/books/2-timothy/3/#v55003001" rel="nofollow noreferrer ugc">2 Tim 3:1</a>) "That day is a day of fury, A day of distress and anguish, A day of storm and desolation, A day of darkness and gloom, A day of clouds and thick gloom," (<a href="https://www.jw.org/en/library/bible/study-bible/books/zephaniah/1/#v36001015" rel="nofollow noreferrer ugc">Zephaniah 1:15</a>)  Do you feel like you lost everything and there is simply no more that you can lose, so why keep living?  </p><p>"In the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed. And this kingdom will not be passed on to any other people. <strong>It will crush and put an end to all these kingdoms, and it alone will stand forever,</strong>" (<a href="https://www.jw.org/en/library/bible/study-bible/books/daniel/2/#v27002044" rel="nofollow noreferrer ugc">Daniel 2:44</a>) "During that time <strong>{</strong><a href="https://www.jw.org/en/library/magazines/wp20100401/Is-Jesus-the-Archangel-Michael/" rel="nofollow noreferrer ugc"><strong>Jesus Christ</strong></a><strong>}</strong> will stand up, <a href="https://www.jw.org/en/library/bible/study-bible/books/isaiah/9/#v23009006" rel="nofollow noreferrer ugc">the Great Prince</a> who is standing in behalf of your people. And there will occur <strong>a time of distress such as has not occurred since there came to be a nation until that time. </strong>And during that time your people will escape, everyone who is found written down in the book." (<a href="https://www.jw.org/en/library/bible/study-bible/books/daniel/12/#v27012001" rel="nofollow noreferrer ugc">Daniel 12:1</a>)  That time is what? <strong>A time of distress.</strong> You're not alone, others are feeling the pangs of distress also. This day or time of distress doesn't last forever.  A new administration is being ushered in as you are reading this article and this time of distress is about to come to their end.  </p><p>Hang on just a little while longer.  Here, take my hand and I will walk with you. There is hope but you must promise me that you will do your best to keep on living.  I want you to know that you are loved and that you are wanted.  You are someone very precious.  I want to introduce you to somebody who also cares for you.  The God and Father of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  <a href="https://www.jw.org/en/bible-teachings/questions/who-is-jehovah/" rel="nofollow noreferrer ugc">Jehovah</a> is “<strong>the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort, </strong>who comforts us in all our trials.”​ (<a href="https://www.jw.org/en/library/bible/study-bible/books/2-corinthians/1/#v47001003-v47001004" rel="nofollow noreferrer ugc">2 Corinthians 1:3-4</a>)  </p><p><a href="https://suicidepreventionlifeline.org/" rel="nofollow noreferrer ugc"><strong>National Suicide Prevention Lifeline</strong></a><strong> 1 (800) 273-8255</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.brorando.com/post/the-day-of-distress-are-coming-to-their-end" rel="nofollow noreferrer ugc">Read more...</a></p>]]>
