You were made for beauty, for richness with great meaning and purpose. But all beauty and love and everything that is good and all richness and everything that is purposeful is found in Jesus Christ. Be a gentle minister of the word speaking to people in psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Bless people with what you have been given.
I want to offer thanks to God for all the patience and love He has showed me. For the glorious blessings that He has given to me, to someone like me who has sinned against Him so many times. And He has never left me. He knew me before the world began. I'm going to get a new name. His blessings are truly pressed down, shaken together and running over. Run away from false doctrines! Be humble. Have true humility. Not false humility. Do not be prideful. Be glad that you know God. Speak to others through the love that is overflowing in your heart. Be wise. Be as gentle as a dove. Your enemy follows you around like a roaring lion. Someday we will see Christ Jesus as He is. Experience the rich fullness of God's love. The melody of His voice.
I feel so encouraged by the fact that I have Christian brothers and sisters that are willing to pray for me to help me in my time of need. I have had some pretty bad depression and anxiety throughout certain parts of my life. My brothers have been praying for me during times when I have been living in sin. I have turned from my sin. Prayer really does work. I find it so much easier to resist sin now. My advice to anyone who struggles with sin would be to find something that is good to do with your time and recognize that yes, you actually do have a choice at what you want to do with your time. You can choose to not sin.
Find something that interests your mind to learn or work on. For me I enjoy learning machine learning and web development. Machine learning is a sub-field of artificial intelligence. I love working with math, statistics, and programming. The key is to walk by the spirit so that you do not fulfill the desires of the flesh. I was really lonely before I started talking to people online. I found people to work with on programming projects and I found a few people that I talk to almost every day or every few days about life in general or programming.
It is Spring time here in the US. I believe we are living in the last time before the rapture. I have been waiting for the rapture to happen for about 7 years. Before 7 years ago I didn't think about it much. For someone living with depression I would encourage them to live in hope and love. Live a life where you are patiently waiting for the return of the Lord Jesus Christ. His return is really soon. Read psalms, read proverbs. Life can be beautiful. Listen to hymns on the piano. Get out of the house some. Love is gentle. Hear the gentle voice of God speaking to you through the beautiful things you can see in nature, through godly music. Debussy is one of my favorite classical piano composers. Turn from your sin that causes so much pain and suffering.
Know that if you are a Christian and you are poor in terms of the material possessions you own, know that you are so rich in Jesus Christ. You are rich in spirit.
