Feeling desperate

[Maharg]

And I don't know what to do. I feel a horrible yearning grief and loneliness despite having a husband and family who love me.

I'm fairly sure I've been suffering from a depression that has got more and more severe, along with terrible anxiety. And it seems to be fluctuating and coming in waves. I have had lots of really difficult things happen in the last year, and although nothing bad is happening now, I just feel indescribably awful. I've always had fluctuating moods, but I've never had so many difficult experiences happen at once.

I'm struggling to trust people. I feel frightened of who I am and keep on thinking of myself as a dangeruos person who could explode any minute. I have no self-confidence left, and I don't know how to be self-confident.

I'm sorry this is one long whinge - I just feel so awful inside. Please pray that I will keep trusting God and that He will give me confidence in myself and in my relationships with others. I'm so vulnerable to the behaviour of people in the world at the moment, and I'm so afraid of getting hurt.

Thank you.

Hi Maharg

I would suggest talking to someone about this- your GP, someone in your church, a counsellor-as there may be things that those people can do to help with the way you are feeling...

Father, bless this woman who is feeling so awful at the moment. Send her strength to keep on going and help to guide her to people who can give her help and support. Fill her with your peace, so that her fears and worries will be calmed and remove this deep depression from her. Send her confidence and fill her with trust in you.
Asking this in the name of Jesus the Lord, who promised that he will never leave us,
Amen.

Isaiah 30:15 "...in quietness and confidence is your strength."

Lord Jesus, give Maharg your peace...the peace that passes understanding. Help her to be confident in your everlasting love and faithfulness. Show her, Lord, who she is in you. She belongs to you, Lord God, let her be filled with the joy that only you can give.

My prayer to our wonderful Father is that you find peace and joy in your walk with Him. May the Lord give you peace that passes all understanding and joy everlasting. In the precious name of Jesus
Amen.
