Suicide is a mental health problem. It is not a crime. Help these people get treated.
God’s justice takes into consideration the intensity of our troubled minds. He understands us better than anyone else. We must place the future of these individuals into His loving hands.
With God’s assistance we can face any feelings of guilt that may plague us in the aftermath of the suicide of a loved one in a constructive way. Keep in mind that often those who die by suicide needed professional help that most of us were unable to provide.

Finally, if you are ever tempted to take your own life, there are medications that can help overcome depression, there are friends who love you and would do all they can to help you, and there is a God who is willing to work with you and through others to sustain you as you walk through the valley of death. Never give up hope! Like Paul in that Philippian prison, we may be the ones to help someone choose life. By God’s grace we may bring encouragement to someone about to give up.
