How the bible helped me cope with my moderate level depression

[jennifer_bloom]

I used to get upset over things I could not control such as the past misdeeds of others, my normal looking face, my normal I.Q. range and my lack of physical strength, but then I realized that life is what you make of it, I can focus on the good deeds of others and not on their bad deeds, I can change my appearance through exercise and clothes and hair extensions, I can raise my intelligence by focusing on skill development and not on birth aptitudes and I can increase my strength with training and muscle work outs and meditation and legal cordyceps mushrooms. I realized, my life was something I had a lot of control over and I was not a victim of circumstances or situations I could not handle, and also that being positive and happy is cost free, effortless once you’ve become accustomed to it, and far more effective than any pill or expensive vacation or lobster tail dinner. As the bible teaches, a cheerful person is like a person who eats at a Chinese buffet everyday, except the cheerful person does not become obese, only happier.

His word is the lamp unto my feet and a lamp unto my path. Jesus is my bread of life, my hope, my renewal, he rescues my sinking ship in the midst of the storm. Romans 15:13 May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope. Psalm 43:5 Why are you cast down, O my soul, and why are you in turmoil within me? Hope in God; for I shall again praise him, my salvation and my God. Isaiah 40:31 But they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.

A couple of days ago I prayed for my sister and I was shaking and felt the presence. After that I think I got healed too because I feel much happier and I got les depressive feelings. There’s so much power in gods word and opening you mouth and confess it

Praying for other people. and seeing miracles, treasures in heaven, is so exciting. I call.700 club. I've seen real life miracles. Even ran into a girl right after prayer. I also, sleep to Bible, watch near death videos, pray along with youtube prayer videos. Listen to worship songs. Even have had encounters with after life. Being a. Christian is fun...
