Pilgrimage to Grace

I needed to remove the heavy bolts and guards that blocked the memories, until all that remained was this - my actual thoughts of how I experienced the storm. This is my personal truth. Hannelie Viviers was diagnosed with bipolar depression in 1998 after a manic episode. She had been a homemaker with two toddlers. At the institution to which she was admitted she made a vow to find work. This resulted after many setbacks in her qualifying as an accountant. But the massive depression spider was never far away and always ready with its venom. Five suicide attempts followed as she tumbled down this path to despair and self-destruction. But each time she was prevented. It began to seem miraculous, almost like divine intervention. This led her to a point where she challenged God to confirm his existence to her. Today, she has found peace and the grace to cope with her condition. Read her journey.
