00:41:16.039 --> 00:41:19.376
And automatically lump formed in my throat and the tears just
00:41:19.509 --> 00:41:22.646
In my throat and the tears just streaming down my face.
00:41:22.779 --> 00:41:23.280
Streaming down my face. and then the following day we
00:41:23.413 --> 00:41:24.047
And then the following day we went back like they never
00:41:24.181 --> 00:41:27.117
Went back like they never happened.
00:41:27.250 --> 00:41:27.484
Happened. no time to grieve.
00:41:27.617 --> 00:41:28.018
No time to grieve. no time mourn.
00:41:28.151 --> 00:41:30.220
No time mourn. i had to stuff all that pain
00:41:30.353 --> 00:41:31.188
I had to stuff all that pain into that duffle bag and just
00:41:31.321 --> 00:41:33.523
Into that duffle bag and just carry it with me the rest of
00:41:33.657 --> 00:41:34.291
Carry it with me the rest of that deployment.
00:41:34.424 --> 00:41:34.758

>> although he pressed the stress was getting to sylvester
00:41:37.494 --> 00:41:38.095
Stress was getting to sylvester and he started to suffer from
00:41:38.228 --> 00:41:41.898
And he started to suffer from ptsd when his yearlong
00:41:42.032 --> 00:41:42.499
Ptsd when his yearlong deployment was extended to 15
00:41:42.632 --> 00:41:45.902
Deployment was extended to 15 months his fragile marriage
00:41:46.036 --> 00:41:46.570
Months his fragile marriage broke and.
00:41:46.703 --> 00:41:49.873

00:41:50.707 --> 00:41:50.907
Divorce. coming back home from and
00:41:51.041 --> 00:41:53.510
Coming back home from and walking into that house and
00:41:53.643 --> 00:41:54.244
Walking into that house and experiencing that was one of
00:41:54.377 --> 00:41:56.113
Experiencing that was one of the most devastating days of my
00:41:56.246 --> 00:41:56.913
The most devastating days of my life.
00:41:57.047 --> 00:41:57.214
Life. >> sylvester tried through
00:41:57.347 --> 00:41:59.783
>> sylvester tried through trying to be a tough soldier
00:41:59.916 --> 00:42:00.484
Trying to be a tough soldier but deep down knew his life was
00:42:00.617 --> 00:42:03.620
But deep down knew his life was falling apart.
00:42:03.753 --> 00:42:04.087
Falling apart. >> i completely hit rock
00:42:04.221 --> 00:42:07.224
>> i completely hit rock bottom.
00:42:07.357 --> 00:42:07.557
Bottom. i felt a strong level of
00:42:07.691 --> 00:42:08.291
I felt a strong level of hopelessness.
00:42:08.425 --> 00:42:08.725
Hopelessness. at that point in time i'm like
00:42:08.859 --> 00:42:11.962
At that point in time i'm like there's no you know, i'm born
00:42:12.095 --> 00:42:12.696
There's no you know, i'm born to fail.
00:42:12.829 --> 00:42:13.029
To fail. i felt like i was just strictly
00:42:15.132 --> 00:42:16.099
I felt like i was just strictly born to fail whatever it was
00:42:16.233 --> 00:42:16.833
Born to fail whatever it was that you know, in school.
00:42:16.967 --> 00:42:19.269
That you know, in school. i feel when it came down to
00:42:19.402 --> 00:42:22.739
I feel when it came down to areas of the military i feel
00:42:22.873 --> 00:42:23.473
Areas of the military i feel that being a husband you just
00:42:23.607 --> 00:42:25.542
That being a husband you just just felt like i had nobody had
00:42:25.675 --> 00:42:26.510
Just felt like i had nobody had my back.
00:42:26.643 --> 00:42:26.843
My back. couldn't get no type of
00:42:29.579 --> 00:42:30.313
Couldn't get no type of support.
00:42:30.447 --> 00:42:30.647
Support. and so at that moment in time i
00:42:30.780 --> 00:42:33.817
And so at that moment in time i felt as though i was better off
00:42:33.950 --> 00:42:34.651
Felt as though i was better off dead than i was alive.
00:42:34.784 --> 00:42:35.252
Dead than i was alive. >> so night about six months
00:42:35.385 --> 00:42:37.487
>> so night about six months after getting home, sylvester
00:42:37.621 --> 00:42:40.724
After getting home, sylvester got his gun to end his pain.
00:42:40.857 --> 00:42:41.591
Got his gun to end his pain. i grabbed the gun it to my
00:42:41.725 --> 00:42:44.861
I grabbed the gun it to my temple, put my finger on the
00:42:44.995 --> 00:42:45.595
Temple, put my finger on the trigger where i screamed out so
00:42:45.729 --> 00:42:48.999
Trigger where i screamed out so i couldn't hear when i pulled
00:42:49.132 --> 00:42:49.766
I couldn't hear when i pulled the trigger.
00:42:49.900 --> 00:42:50.200
The trigger. you know, i start breathing
00:42:50.333 --> 00:42:52.135
You know, i start breathing hard and the next thing you
00:42:52.269 --> 00:42:52.869
Hard and the next thing you know the tears start streaming
00:42:53.003 --> 00:42:53.570
Know the tears start streaming down my face and then at that
00:42:53.703 --> 00:42:56.806
Down my face and then at that moment in time i cried out and
00:42:56.940 --> 00:42:57.674
Moment in time i cried out and i cried out to god.
00:42:57.807 --> 00:43:00.310
I cried out to god. i said why me?
00:43:00.443 --> 00:43:00.844
I said why me? why do i got to all this?
00:43:00.977 --> 00:43:03.513
Why do i got to all this? but then i felt like i heard a
00:43:03.647 --> 00:43:04.614
But then i felt like i heard a faint voice said is this what
00:43:04.748 --> 00:43:07.384
Faint voice said is this what you truly want?
00:43:07.517 --> 00:43:07.851
You truly want? and at that moment i was like
00:43:07.984 --> 00:43:11.988
And at that moment i was like no, i just want the pain to
00:43:12.122 --> 00:43:12.756
No, i just want the pain to stop.
00:43:12.889 --> 00:43:13.056
Stop. i just want to stop like a
00:43:13.190 --> 00:43:15.559
I just want to stop like a failure.
00:43:15.692 --> 00:43:15.892
Failure. i just want to stop feeling
00:43:16.026 --> 00:43:16.626

I just want to stop feeling all this pain and chaos that's
00:43:19.296 --> 00:43:19.829
This pain and chaos that's going on inside of me.
00:43:19.963 --> 00:43:20.463
Going on inside of me. and then i felt like he said at
00:43:22.732 --> 00:43:23.700

Take it away from me. so i chose to give give my life
00:43:39.516 --> 00:43:42.586
So i chose to give give my life to jesus christ after

To jesus christ after surrendering to god.

You know i want t to show you hw the enemy works in lives in the
00:44:48.084 --> 00:44:50.920
The enemy works in lives in the bible says he prowls around

Bible says he prowls around like a hungry lion and his goal
00:44:54.324 --> 00:44:55.025
Like a hungry lion and his goal is to destroy us not just to
00:44:55.158 --> 00:44:58.695
Is to destroy us not just to harm us but to destroy us.
00:44:58.828 --> 00:45:02.299
Harm us but to destroy us. >> take us out.
00:45:02.432 --> 00:45:02.832
>> take us out. that idea of picking up and
00:45:02.966 --> 00:45:06.403
That idea of picking up and putting it to his head and
00:45:06.536 --> 00:45:07.103
Putting it to his head and taking his life was not
00:45:07.237 --> 00:45:09.806
Taking his life was not something that came out of
00:45:09.939 --> 00:45:10.507
Something that came out of sylvester's heart that directly
00:45:10.640 --> 00:45:13.810
Sylvester's heart that directly from the enemy of god because
00:45:13.943 --> 00:45:14.644
From the enemy of god because sylvester or like you and me is
00:45:14.778 --> 00:45:18.648
Sylvester or like you and me is made in the image and likeness
00:45:18.782 --> 00:45:20.717
Made in the image and likeness of the one who loves him more
00:45:20.850 --> 00:45:21.451
Of the one who loves him more than we'll ever understand god
00:45:21.584 --> 00:45:24.821
Than we'll ever understand god who created him, who provided
00:45:24.954 --> 00:45:25.555
Who created him, who provided salvation a way to come through
00:45:25.689 --> 00:45:29.359
Salvation a way to come through all of the chaos for him.
00:45:29.492 --> 00:45:32.329
All of the chaos for him. but when sylvester was a little
00:45:32.462 --> 00:45:33.096
But when sylvester was a little boy, you know, he grew up in
00:45:33.229 --> 00:45:34.030
Boy, you know, he grew up in hard circumstances he didn't
00:45:34.164 --> 00:45:36.900
Hard circumstances he didn't have a dad around he as a
00:45:37.033 --> 00:45:37.634
Have a dad around he as a single parent and growing up in
00:45:37.767 --> 00:45:40.103
Single parent and growing up in a tough neighborhood and so he
00:45:40.236 --> 00:45:43.573
A tough neighborhood and so he felt alone.
00:45:43.707 --> 00:45:43.973
Felt alone. you know, little boys need dads
00:45:44.107 --> 00:45:47.077
You know, little boys need dads .
00:45:47.210 --> 00:45:47.310
. >> girls need dads too, but
00:45:47.444 --> 00:45:48.144
>> girls need dads too, but little boys need dads and they
00:45:48.278 --> 00:45:50.814
Little boys need dads and they feel that emptiness.
00:45:50.947 --> 00:45:51.381
Feel that emptiness. so enemy watches all of that
00:45:51.514 --> 00:45:55.518
So enemy watches all of that and you know what he does?
00:45:55.652 --> 00:45:56.219
And you know what he does? he waits he waits.
00:45:56.353 --> 00:45:58.355
He waits he waits. now he was working against
00:45:58.488 --> 00:46:02.225
Now he was working against sylvester in those years.
00:46:02.359 --> 00:46:02.892
Sylvester in those years. he got into gangs, started
00:46:03.026 --> 00:46:05.628
He got into gangs, started stuff to hide his pain to to
00:46:05.762 --> 00:46:06.663
Stuff to hide his pain to to cover up the feelings that he
00:46:06.796 --> 00:46:10.233
Cover up the feelings that he had.
00:46:10.367 --> 00:46:10.500
Had. and then the same thing
00:46:10.633 --> 00:46:11.134
And then the same thing happened in the military.
00:46:11.267 --> 00:46:13.970
Happened in the military. you know, when you begin to
00:46:14.104 --> 00:46:14.738
You know, when you begin to realize that life is fragile
00:46:14.871 --> 00:46:17.774
Realize that life is fragile here you are working hard every
00:46:17.907 --> 00:46:18.541
Here you are working hard every day and giving everything
00:46:18.675 --> 00:46:19.209
Day and giving everything you've got and you watch your
00:46:19.342 --> 00:46:22.045
You've got and you watch your friends sometimes blown up
00:46:22.178 --> 00:46:22.712
Friends sometimes blown up right before your eyes, your
00:46:22.846 --> 00:46:25.515
Right before your eyes, your marriage falls apart and you
00:46:25.648 --> 00:46:26.182
Marriage falls apart and you begin to go back to those early
00:46:26.316 --> 00:46:29.452
Begin to go back to those early years where you didn't have
00:46:29.586 --> 00:46:30.186
Years where you didn't have anything or you didn't know who
00:46:30.320 --> 00:46:33.256
Anything or you didn't know who you were, where you felt
00:46:33.390 --> 00:46:33.890
You were, where you felt abandoned, left behind, unseen,
00:46:34.023 --> 00:46:36.893
Abandoned, left behind, unseen, unknown and then you start
00:46:37.026 --> 00:46:40.430
Unknown and then you start making choices, you know,
00:46:40.563 --> 00:46:44.300
Making choices, you know, thinking about taking your life
00:46:44.434 --> 00:46:45.068
Thinking about taking your life is a very permanent change to
00:46:45.201 --> 00:46:48.838
Is a very permanent change to what usually is a temporary
00:46:48.972 --> 00:46:49.506
What usually is a temporary problem.
00:46:49.639 --> 00:46:49.839

He could have lost all of that if if he would have listened to
00:48:17.927 --> 00:48:20.597
If if he would have listened to the loud voice instead of the
00:48:20.730 --> 00:48:21.397
The loud voice instead of the still voice right now this
00:48:21.531 --> 00:48:24.167
