??????............

well today started off pretty rough...i think it is not a good time in my life right now, as some may know i struggle with depression and have for years now. lately its been getting the better of me.
try as i might to get out of my own way, i am floundering like a beached whale in the sahara desert. I have been trying to stay hopeful because i know thats what i should do... plus nobody likes a downer... but i cant help feeling so helpless. Satan has been having a field day with this and i am trying to remain faithful... God is allowing this for a reason, i just wish i knew what it was. but in any event I hope that for all those out there that feel helpless for any reason will cling to the hope that only God can give and know that trials may come but the Rock of your Salvation will always remain. I do not know if this will help any of you but i am starting to write Bible verses and encouraging thoughts/prayers on stickys and leaving them around so i will find them. I think it helps to get a little extra encouragement every once in a while. I will let you know if it does help... so far so good.

Yours in Christ,
Jillian

"Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? HOPE thou in God, for I shall yet praise him. For he is the hope of my salvation and my countenance." (somewhere in Psalms)
I would like to encourage you to read the Psalms as David was a man of many emotions. I think it'll really encourage you. :o )
