God in the Midst of Depressionნიმუში

Reflection:
The psalmist, like many of us, went through moments of deep sadness and despair. Yet, in the midst of his pain, he chose to direct his heart toward God, reminding himself that hope is still possible. This act of speaking to his soul teaches us that while our feelings are real, they do not have the final say.

God is our salvation, even when we don’t immediately feel His presence. In the midst of depression, it can be hard to praise or trust, but these small acts of faith help us see that the darkness won’t last forever. God is our light, and with Him, there is hope and restoration.

Personal Application:
Find a psalm about hope and write down the verses that speak to your heart. Carry them with you throughout the day and repeat them when you feel sadness creeping in.
