I've been sooo down in the dumps lately. I've prayed numerous times throughout the day, while keeping my bible handy, but I still feel so small. I know that in time God works in his own way-a way that in the end is for the best, but I only want to smile. Please pray for me. Think of me. If any of you have had severe depression, you know where I'm coming from . . .You don't want to get out of bed, you don't want to do ANYTHING! I just can't seem to snap out of it. I'm on my knees . . .I just need a "TRUE" friend. I'm close with God these days, but I need someone else that can talk back . . LOL. I hope someone is out there.

Father God, I lift my sister up to You. I ask that You lift this depression and whisper Your hope and assurance to her heart. Please help her to find her total identity in You, and immerse herself in Your Word and Your people. I ask that You strengthen, encourage and give her peace. Thank You Father for Your abiding presence, in Jesus' name, amen.

While I've never suffered severe depression, I have had small glimpses of what it might be like. I too have had days where I'm just too down to really want to do anything. I firmly believe that God will get you through this. I will keep you in my prayers. I pray that, like other forms of trials and persecution, you will emerge with a stronger faith and closer walk with Him.

I thank you all . . .Covenantwmn-you are truly amazing! I was brought to tears of joy while reading what you wrote. It's amazing what you can find through a stranger on the computer. It's something I haven't been able to achieve here at home. Sure . .I have people that care for me, but you ALL have given me hope tonight. Thank you all so very much. I have much gratitude for your words of wisdom.

You will be in my prayers for your strength, joy, hope, and healing.

Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless and the treasury of compassion inexhaustible, look kindly upon us, and increase Your mercy in us, so that in difficult moments we might not despair, nor become despondent, but with great confidence, submit ourselves to Your Holy Will, which is Love and Mercy itself. Amen
