I've been having depression hit me off and on. Sometimes I feel fine, even great, other times I start to feel hopeless and lonely again. It puts a lot of stress and anxiety on me.
Right now I'm struggling with the feeling of heartache. A relationship with a woman that might not work out is taking up almost all my thoughts for weeks, making it difficult to focus on God and other things I need to take care of. I think the fact that it's coming between me and God, the idea that I value something potentially more than my relationship with God, I think could also be a big spiritual problem that is impacting me right now but I have a hard time helping how I feel. I can say I am willing to give up everything and follow him, and mean it, but I may not feel it. Or I may feel I want to but still be in great pain with the choice.
I don't know what I should do, and don't know if I'm getting any clear leading from God about what to do, because I'm so emotionally involved and high strung over it seems to make hearing God's voice on this matter difficult.
I need prayer for some kind of clear distinct leading, as well as peace for my mind and and heart.
I also need to walk in joy more everyday, and stop letting the depressive feelings come against me. All I know to do right now is ask for prayer.
