Today is a wonderful day, a day the Lord has made!!!!! It is a day a freedom and a day for thankfulness for his grace, mercy and for being such a Good Good Father!!!!

The last few weeks, actually must my life I have suffered depression. No matter how good life was there was this emptiness, this sadness, this overwhelming feeling I was alone. Last week I fell at my lowest point…… Thoughts of suicide. I know so many are surprised to hear this knowing that I am the girl who jokes, puts on a smile and tries to make people happy. However inside I was dying. I was fading away and giving up. Simply put I was listening to the lies of the devil. But Praise God …….I found the answer is Jesus Christ. I knew it all along but being as stubborn as I am I thought I got myself in this mess and I need to get myself out. But thank you Jesus You don’t see it that way. Your love for us is unconditional….no boundaries……  Isaiah 61:1 says He has come to heal the brokenhearted and set captives free. When we trust Him completely trust Him, the chains holding us back, the depression and solitude that is sinking us from joy are broken. We are finally  liberated from lies that have been programmed in our minds from an early age, and we finally begin to see things from God’s point of view. We begin to see that our needs, desires, and overall well-being rest, our peace, our sound mind, are  securely in the arms of a loving heavenly Father. So all we have to do is lay back. Lay back in his arms and rest and allow him to take control of all aspects of our lives.

So today I ask are you feeling the depressed, do you fell like the weight of the world is on your shoulders, do you have anxiety or anger? I am telling you…….literally pick up those chains……lift them high and through them as far as you can and look to Jesus. He is there waiting simply waiting for us to surrender.
