约伯记 6:8

The World Health Organization estimates 350 million people suffer from depression globally, and depression knows no religious, racial, gender, or economic boundaries. But depression does have boundaries in terms of how it affects your life! As we journey towards a better understanding of depression and options you have, Dr. Bergina shares her knowledge and Biblical wisdom so that you too can put limits on depression and move towards complete recovery. The content in this devotional is taken from the book "Victory Over Depression With and Without Medicines" by Dr. Bergina Isbell.

Whether it's poor health, financial struggles or job loss, life sometimes feels like a lottery where the odds are stacked against us. The Bible has many accounts of people who were blessed by God because they trusted him during the hardest times. We can learn a great deal from them about perseverance.

God is the best source of comfort you will find. He knows you better than anyone else does, and he is full of understanding for every situation. Lay your heart at the Father’s feet and wait for his compassionate response. As you read these devotions taken from "Joy and Strength: 365 Devotions for Grief and Loss" let God be your strength as you cry out to him.

Do you ever wake up wondering where your healing is? Do you ever question if God has forgotten you in your pain? I am here to tell you He hasn’t. Not once has He forgotten you. This study explores the definition of healing and what it means for believers. We don’t get a free pass from pain and suffering because we are believers, rather it gives us the opportunity to use it for His Kingdom. While healing can be brutal and devastating it can also be beautiful and encouraging, if you allow it, our God will use you.
