No stranger to heartache and sadness, Gomez went on to cite others' suffering and pointed fans to the solace that can be found in knowing you are not the only one in pain.

"There is someone in the world feeling so much, just like you," the singer wrote. "There is someone who will always have it better or have it way worse than you. The point of all of that is to feel not alone. My point is, you are not alone in this world."

Furthermore, the former Disney star reminded her followers of God's love, urging them to resist thoughts of taking their own lives.

"Your purpose is to share, help, encourage," Gomez penned. "Remember that. Please. Before you think of taking your life, think of all the [lives] you could save. More importantly, there is a God that will love you more than I ever could."

Gomez's message arrives as suicide was named the second leading cause of death for people between the ages of 10 and 24, according to The Jason Foundation, an organization working toward raising awareness of teen suicide. The website also points out that more teens and young adults have died from suicide than those of cancer, heart disease, AIDS, birth defects, pneumonia, influenza and chronic lung disease, combined.

Meanwhile, the anti-suicide message is not the first time Gomez has referenced her Christian faith on social media as well as during interviews. Moreover, the singer was recently spotted attending services at Hillsong Church in Southern California.
