What turned my life around was when the Lord led me to give up some bad habits. Maybe you have a habit or two you could shed.

Jesus loves you and He is always with us and you are valuable to the Lord. God bless you and Jesus is Lord. If you ever want to talk you can message me whenever you want.

Yes I understand. Now is the time you simply MUST remind yourself that THAT is the depression talking to you... and all it does is LIE LIE LIE!

That isn't who you are. Tell yourself that you won't always feel so blue and that you will be better before too long and have a really good day... and that God loves you no matter what so worship Him!

We are here to worship God. You can praise him in spite of how you think your life is going, or going to be (are you a fortune teller? Nah God can change things on a dime for you!)

Worship God. Praise His Name! Count it all part of the course of life and count it all JOY FOR GOD... because when the devil sees you praising God no matter what, he backs off a bit!

Please don't think about life today.. think about God's goodness only!

i know so well what you are saying here. For many years life was like that for me. Sadness, regrets, guilt, shame, loneliness, fear and hopelessness my daily companions. i used to heed my depressed feelings lying to me without thinking that my own thoughts and feelings could lie to me about my reality, a catch 22 to be for someone with depressive illness.

However then i read God's word and The Word told me that love, faith and hope remain, yet mine faith in God's love had no hope at all- no hope in is good but to die as soon as possible and perish. It was then i realised that me whole life was on the wrong side of the word and realised that (depressive) lies do that, they turn the good news of the bible to bad news.

So i repented on the spot and let Jesus teach me to hold onto good life and praise and thank Him for it when He came around. Within 3 1/2 years my suicidal depression was past and my dark and gloomy heart was filled with His loving truth instead. Awesome those promises of God towards us when we dare to believe He means it when He says 'I love you the person i have made you' and 'I will never leave you.'

How true Jesus turned out to be! More true than anything else i met in my life down here! True He didn't heal my depressive illness but He did take me out of my darkness and put me into His light. Gave me the ability to overcome whatever my illness threw at me. On top of it to be instead of on the bottom. The best thing ever however is that my bad life produces His good life i will always love Jesus for doing that for me and i know He wants to do this for you as well.

Peace
Depressed?
The pain of depression
is not only the fact
that good life is gone,
much worse seeing
bad life enjoying
tearing good life apart.

The sorrow of depression
are the hurting lies ruling.
They shape an abomination
which brings us our desolation,
time and again
dumping us in the pit.

The hopelessness of depression
floods fully over us
when we are overwhelmed
by the darkness pressing
us down into that hole
so lonely and forsaken.

The way out of depression
is to lovingly love
yourself away
from loveless lies
back into His truth
ruling good life.
