God’s Word has the power to change everything – even your depression.
Hi, I’m Joni Eareckson Tada with a word about depression. It’s a personal word because I struggle with depression from time to time. Occasionally, I find my emotions growing dark and depressing when I am in a long season of pain. It makes for very short nights of sleep. So, lack of sleep and unrelenting pain – it is a recipe for depression. These seasons make you doubt in the dark, everything that you believe to be true in the light. And trust me, depression does not leave without a fight. It is a battle to keep reminding yourself of all the things that you know to be true. You’ve got to wake up in the morning, put on your boxing gloves, and fight using every Bible verse you know – like Revelation 21 where Christ says you can overcome. So, the next time depression tries to take over, fight the good fight. God’s Word has the power to change everything – even your depression.
