I am 53-now 54 at the time of this editing-years old. I live in an appartment. I have worked as a security guard at the same place for 25 years and the security contract is coming up for a bid and I may or may not be retained. I also suffer from periodic bouts of depression but I have not been diagnosed as such. I would like a better job but as each day and year passes it looks less likely. Can God give me a better situation and/or somehow make my life less miserable? Can anyone speak from personal experience?
That sounds very stressful. Yes, my friend, it can get better. I know from experience. God has granted me so many blessings and improvements in my life. My life is certainly not perfect - to some people it may look poor, but to me right now I feel very blessed.
Depression is so rough. Not just because it is difficult to endure, but because it makes it easier to lose sight of hope, blessings you do have, and casts a grey cloud over so much, even happiness. It is certainly NOT always just about having a change of mind either. It can take a lot of work and strength and drains you at the same time. My prayers are with you on feeling better.
