4.13.25

I haven’t posted in awhile, I have been struggling with some mental health issues and that got me thinking about how common mental health is in today’s world. Mental health issues were also a thing of the past, too. We need to realize, myself too, that rather than laying down while Satan takes hold of us, we must fight back and seek the Lord for guidance and strength to overcome such feelings.

Deuteronomy 31:8 says, “The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.” Even when we are feeling at our lowest, God is still there. We just have to remember that in our time of sadness.

Psalm 3:3 says, “But you, Lord, are a shield around me, my glory, the One who lifts my head high.”

Jesus says in John 10:10, “The thief comes only to kill and steal and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” Jesus told us that what Satan is after, but He also says that He is here for us.

Philippians 4:13 says, “I can do all things through him who strengthens me.” This means no matter what, we can face battles, we are not alone and God is there for us to lean on and provide us strength.

So when you are feeling down and like you are the bottom of a pit with no way out, remember there is a way and it’s the Lord. He is our light in the darkness, we must call out to Him and He will be there. You can get through this. You can do anything you put your mind to, He is our strength.

Stay blessed.
