God Cares About You(r Mental Health)Sample

Sometimes, well-meaning people try to make bad things seem better by saying, “If we never had bad experiences, we wouldn’t be able to appreciate the good experiences.” That may or may not be true. But someday, in the future that God offers us, every source of pain will be completely erased from our lives.

Today’s verse is Revelation 21:4, which says, “He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”

Today, this week, or this month might be terrible—but at the end of the story of Christianity, “There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain.” There will be no more mental health issues in the New Earth. There will be no more anxiety, no more depression, no more self-harm, no more suicidal ideation, no more trauma, no more broken relationships, no more hate—because we will be living in an unbroken world in perfect communion with God.

But we still live in the midst of these things. So for now, we join Jesus in praying to the Father “your kingdom come, your will be done,” and we partner with Him to help bring these eternal realities into the world here and now.
