Depression versus Burdens

[walkin2e]

Often, I have a feeling like depression come on me. It cloaks me with its' intensity..so much so that I have to go to the Lord in prayer. Over the years, I've learned that this is not depression, but a prayer burden placed on me by the Lord. I feel the pain of those I'm praying for, and can get no relief until the Lord rolls the burden away.

This heaviness of soul came again this morning. Please pray for me that the Lord would roll this burden away. When I become this way I rely upon Romans 8 verses 26 and 27:

"Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is in the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God".

[Zita123]

What I truly believe is that GOD blessed you with a really big heart, which comes with very strong feelings! I know because I'm this way. My feelings are so strong for people I don't even know! I do pray on those feelings and then I have learned to give it up to GOD. It works!! If you truley give it up to GOD! Zita123 Psalm 18:2 The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my GOD is my rock, in whom I take refuge. He is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.

 

[Jeshu]

Thanks for praying for those with heavy burdens. (That God may grant you many more years on your knees.)
