Faith is my key for surviving depression.

Unknown Object
Depression is hard enough to live through
but living through it without some kind of faith, to me would be impossible.

As a Christian my faith is in Jesus Christ.

My faith not only brings me salvation but also comfort and strength for the hard times.



My faith is not hinged on getting better, feeling better, living a depression free life.

Oh that would be nice though - a depression free life....

But my faith is my faith no matter what.

I cling to that, it comforts me, it sustains me. My faith is my key to survival.

My faith is in a God who I believe exists, loves me, hears my prayers, and is preparing a wonderful place for me to live in heaven.

This faith, this God is my comfort and my strength.

And do I ever need comfort and strength.

DEPRESSION IS HARD

Life without faith is harder.

Depression without faith even harder.

I am recently coming through a real bad patch of depression. I can't help but think "what do I have to offer anyone? Look at me, even with all of my own research and advice, even with all of my strategies and supports, I still experience bouts of depression."
I don't have the answers but...


The key to my survival is my faith.

I can share my faith.

IS FAITH THE CURE?
No!

FAITH IS THE KEY!

The key to help, comfort and strength to endure.

What about you? How are you feeling today?Do you have a faith? Does it help you? Would you like to have this free gift of faith? We will chat more about this the next time.

Don't give up! There is hope for depression.

  My Little Helper Casey Writes a Book! I am writing another book! This time it is a Christian devotional and I am looking forward to sharing it with you when I am done. In the meantime, just for fun, I googled 'yorkie writing a book' and this is the picture that came up. It's a beautiful picture, isn't it? Actually looks like a painting to me, what do you think? Anyways, that reminded me of how much you can find on the internet just with a few words to google. It's amazing, isn't it? And that got me thinking about how much information I have found over the years about depression that has helped me.

Joy and Sorrow - Together?

  Joy and Sorrow - At the Same Time? Have you ever experienced joy in the middle of sorrow? I have. My father died suddenly at the age of 59. I remember the moment. I was at his funeral, sitting in the front pew holding my mother's right hand with my sister on the other side holding her left hand. The three of us were drenched with tears. The big church was packed. But despite my sorrow I was filled with joy at the life my dad had lived, at the lives he had impacted in a good way, and at the thankfulness I felt for having him all those years.
