Even great men and women of God can become depressed at times. Take God's prophet Elijah,for example. He was a man of God who looked to Him and did many exploits,but on one occasion he got very depressed and took his focus off God (1Kings 19:1-23) He got tired and discouraged in the work of the Lord and focused on his problems,rather than the problem solver,God. He felt like giving up and even taking his own life,but God had other plans and as he sat despondently under a tree,God sent an angel to him,who touched him and told him to get up and eat,sleep and chill out. We also need to do that at times!
