Suicide, Depression, Hopelessness And Other Mental Health Challenges Can Be Helped Through Examining The Wisdom Offered In The Book Of Proverbs Says Award Winning Author Donna Louis

    WILMINGTON, NC, October 17, 2019 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Suicides and depression are on the rise and now seem to dominate our national headlines. Notable figures who have committed suicide, such as Robin Williams and Anthony Bourdain, bring these issues to light due to their recent celebrity status, but these suicides are merely the tip of the iceberg. Other notable celebrity suicides include Ernest Hemingway, Vincent Van Gogh, Marilyn Monroe, Kate Spade and a host of others. Even Pastors, such as Jarrid Wilson, Andrew Stoecklein and Rick Warren's son Matthew, have fallen prey.

According the National Institute Of Mental Health, suicide was the second leading cause of death among individuals between the ages of 10 and 34, and the fourth leading cause of death among individuals between the ages of 35 and 54. Information found on the NIH website informs us that 9.8 million adults had serious thoughts of suicide in 2017 and 2.8 million adults made suicide plans. So how can we deal with the pressures of modern day society and avoid depression, hopelessness or thoughts of suicide?

Donna Louis, award winning author of 'Book Of Proverbs, Wisdom vs Wildnerness', believes we have already been given the answer to these pressing problems.

"Depression has long been an issue from biblical times," Louis stated. Examples of biblical characters who suffered from depression include Jeremiah, Jonah, Job, David, Moses and Elijah. Life is going to happen to all of us, We all have tests and challenges that we will go through. However, we have to realize that if we change our attitude it will up our altitude. God didn't send his son Jesus for us to be depressed and unhappy or for us to bully other people or to commit suicide. We have to remember Isaiah 41:10 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness."

Louis recently announced the release of her latest Christian book, 'Book Of Proverbs, Wisdom vs Wilderness'. 'Book of Proverbs, Wisdom vs. Wilderness' delves deeply into the timeless human quest for wisdom. As all Christians know, the primary purpose of the Biblical Book of Proverbs is to teach wisdom. The Book of Proverbs provides intellectual depth, insights and exceptional wisdom on how to live a meaningful, joyful and tranquil life by honoring and respecting God as omnipotent.

The new release discusses all chapters in Proverbs 1-31 and brings insight, clarity, and basic meaning to several verses in each chapter. It clarifies why wisdom is not only essential, but mandatory in life, if one hopes to live a blessed life, versus living destitute, empty, or feeling lost or hopeless.

Louis has won a number of industry awards. She was recently chosen as the winner in the 2018 Top Female Author Awards in the Religion/Philosophy/Spiritual category. Louis was chosen from an international field of contestants by a panel of judges. She was also a recent winner in the 2018 50 Great Writers You Should Be Reading Awards.

Louis' recent wins follow three awards in the 50 Great Writers You Should Be Reading Awards contest (2015, 2016 and 2017), and two nominations in the Top Female Authors Awards.

Donna Louis' first book, 'Miracles of Direction, Miracles of Conquest, Miracles of Provision and Miracles of Purpose' helps readers explore miracles both past and present. The book explores biblical miracles that took place while Jesus was here on earth. She then references with miracles that take place on a daily basis in the modern world. She separates these miracles into four categories and presents insightful examples of each type, taken directly from the Bible.

Louis knows her subject well, as she has personally experienced four miracles. As the result of those life-altering experiences, she began an in-depth study of some of Christianity's most well-documented miracles. In her book, she attempts to expand upon and explain both the purpose and the direction of those miracles.

'Miracles' has received rave reviews from readers. One review called it "amazing, uplifting and inspirational". Another stated, "I was profoundly impressed by the writing."
