Dear Sarah,

I pray that you will have a path be presented to you to help you cope with your condition. Jesus loves you unconditionally, and if you belong to Him, you will not destroy what belongs to Christ. My prayer is that you accept and understand that thought as well as you find a good Christian counselor to help you work through your depression.

In Christ,

G.
 
I will Pray for you.
It is important that we Pray to help us handle depression. I Samuel 1:10, "In bitterness of soul Hannah wept much and prayed to the Lord."Feeling depressed and discouraged doesn't last forever. Psalm 30:5, "Weeping may go on all night, but in the morning there is joy."No matter the situation, God will always be there to see you through. II Corinthians 4:8-10"We are pressed on every side by troubles, but not crushed and broken. We are perplexed because we don't know why things happen as they do, but we don't give up and quit. We are hunted down, but God never abandons us. We get knocked down, but we get up again and keep going." Who are you that God is mindful of you, you are you. Psalm 139:17-18,"How precious it is, Lord, to realize that you are thinking about me constantly! I can't even count how many times a day your thoughts turn towards me. And when I waken in the morning, you are still thinking of me!"
 
James 4: 6 But the grace that God gives is even stronger. As the scripture says, "God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble." 7 So then, submit yourselves to God. Resist the Devil, and he will run away from you. 8 Come near to God, and he will come near to you.

When the thoughts come, start praying and praising God!(It works ..really it does!) and Fight back with Scripture!
 
Sarah, I'm praying for you too
I pray God will show you that you are not to blame, I pray you will feel His love and know you are not going through this alone.
Love Janie
 
Hang in there and keep praying, try to hold on to your faith and hope. God has a plan for you. I will pray for you too!!!
 
LittleAngel, the events in your life are a grievous hardship, but there is nothing greater than the power of our Lord Jesus. You can overcome the grief by surrendering to His ability. Where we are weakest, God will enter in with His strength. He can and will heal you of your torments. As soon as satan attacks your mind with yesterday's tragedy, think Jesus. You can do all things through Christ Who strengthens you.

Almighty God, our Father and Creator, You know Your daughter, what is in her heart and what are her emotional needs. Bring Your Holy Spirit into her spirit to give her a new heart, full of your love that casts out fear. Bring Sarah understanding of the new creation she is in Christ. Make her strong in resolve to seek You in everything and to keep moving forward, coming closer to You with each new day. Thank you that You rebuke every attack on her mind restore her to emotional health. Thank You Lord for the healing You are bringing to Your daughter. Through Jesus Christ, Amen.

I'm praying for you Sarah. Life can be a very tough thing at times. Sometimes we all want to run away from everything but we can't. One thing I know we can all do is to trust in God. Even in the worst of times. Just keep on praying and having faith. We'll all keep praying for you. God really does save. Take care and God bless you.

:rose: Little Angel, I suffer from depression too and the sadness is overwhelming. The only answer I have for your feelings is to just have faith that the worst feelings will end. The only thing I can do when I feel lost and suicidal, is to try for patience and let my patience get me through my worst moments. It is more than one step at a time, it is like you have to stop taking steps and just get through each day. But always Little Angel, my depression ends. Please don't hurt yourself, okay? One day at a time.
I will pray for you sweetie and hope for you too. Okay? Love:Pixie:rose:
Don't forget that our Father is always there loving you. He is within reach.
 
Lord Jesus, create in Sarah a contrite heart. Able to receive abundant understanding and forgiveness for those who might have done her wrong. Let her be delivered immediately from the spirit of destruction over her life, that it may be thrown as far as east is from the west. Let it become replaced with great Joy and blessings abundant, like never before seen or heard of in her realm. And let her walk in a freedom, in Your Holy Spirit of great strength and mercy, that will lead many of those around her out of their tomb of darkness into Your Light. God hears, God sees, God knows, amen.
