Depressed

[Loving.wife]

I'm struggling with a severe depression. I keep an optimistic front when I see Josh, I don't want my being discouraged to steer him down the wrong path.

I've been praying for peace along with Josh's salvation. What we have ahead of us, either as a married couple or separately is more than any human can handle. I know I need to leave it to God, but I feel completely worthless.

I'm in school and what started out as something I loved feels like a burden. I can give my children food and shelter, but I cry when I hold them because their father isn't holding me. I can't seem to find joy in living. I pray with nearly every thought, but instead of relief and peace I feel an emptiness.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but I know without a doubt I can't continue like I have been much longer. Its eating me from the inside out.

Dear Father your grace I ask for this child of yours. Please touch her and let her know you are with her. Do not let her assume that you are with out knowledge or action in her pain. Take it from her and wash it away with your living waters, as a baptist helsp us cleanse and renew for you. Lord strengthen her marriage and bring her husband before you kneeling with love and understanding. Amen.

LORD, HELP THIS LOVING WIFE TO LET GO OF ALL THIS ANXIETY AND DISCOURAGEMENT AND LIFT OFF THIS CLOUD OF DEPRESSION. AS SHE TURNS THIS SITUATION AND ALL HER PROBLEMS OVER TO YOU IN PRAYER GIVE HER THAT PEACE OF MIND THAT TRANCENDS ALL UNDERSTANDING AND GUARD HER HEART AND MIND THROUGH CHRIST JESUS (PHIL. 4:6,7). HELP HER TO UNDERSTAND THAT PERFECT PEACE IS ONLY ACHEIVABLE AS WE KEEP OUR MINDS ON YOU RATHER THAN OUR CIRCUMSTANCES, AND THAT WE TRUST IN YOU FOR THOSE THINGS WE ARE IN NEED 0F (ISA. 26:3), IN JESUS NAME, AMEN

Loving wife,

Hi my name is Ysmine. I too suffer from depression. I know how you feel. It is hard to stay positive when negative thoughts always invading your mind. Though I have felt this way before I am getting better. I know that if you trust in the Lord he will do the same for you. If you pray for every thought I know this will work and you will feel better. This doesn't necessary happen overnight. You won't necessary notice it happening but you will feel better in the long run, I assure you. I haven't completely recovered yet myself, but I am better off than I was a year ago. Just say positive. I know this is hard but try not to focus on all the "bad". Focus on what is good, like you have a loving husband, wonderful kids, & anything else that makes you happy. I am here if you need to talk more. I hoped this helped. I will pray for you as well.

Love,

Ysmine
