Sometimes life just doesn't seem like it's worth living. One national survey indicated that about 24 percent of teenage girls consider suicide in any given year. Many attempt suicide. And some succeed. Joel describes some terrors that will drive many in Judah to despair. But he also gives them God's wonderful promise : Return to me with all your heart ... I will repay you for the years the locust have eaten  ( Joel 2:12,25).One day you too are likely to be so hurt or disappointed you feel life isn't worth living. But really it is. Turn to God, and know that he will more than repay your pain with good things in your future. {Joel2:12-27}
