first John 1:5
This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you,
that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
Cindy,
You are not walking on egg shells, as God's child, you are walking on solid
ground. The darkness in the long tunnel are the lies of the Enemy because
Jesus Christ is the Light and you are walking in His light because you are
the children of Light. Walk as Children of Light and curse the darkness as
you walk.

around the corner so you walk on eggshells. I've been through this this past
year because my stepdaughter is bi polar. I just wanted to let you know,
there is a light at the end of the tunnel, however long that tunnel may be.
