All Fulfilling "Darkness" this penning is magnificent and oh so true~I love it!
"Once you are God�s child, he will never set you free.
He is always right there with you, throughout eternity.
So look to him for guidance, it�s God who holds the light.
He will carry you from the darkness and your days will soon be bright."
Nurturing; your spiritual pennings shine through like gold.

When depression strikes, I have found the Bible helps greatly. Sometimes it takes a while before I give in and get out my Bible; it's like I need a cue card to remind me. But then reading what God says reminds me of how He loves me and gives me courage to go on.
"Run to Jesus" is advice I once read, and I agree, because He is waiting for us to run into His arms and let Him love and comfort us.
I especially like Hebrews 12:1-14.
Love and coal-cracker hugs, Bonnie Dear

Yes, depression is horror at its best. Yes, God is there but in the blackest pits of depression it is even hard to find him so consumed with the pain at the time. Excellent write. Liz

Darkness only stays for a while, especially when you have your loving Savior to guide you. Sunny days will be here sooner than you think. Praying for you and hoping your pains are not too bad. Depression is hard to fight but I fight it every day and every hour and almost every minutes to0.
