Depression

What do I do: If I want a Christian perspective?

2. Even though you feel alone, you should know that God sees your struggle and knows of your depression (Psalm 38:9).
3. God offers for you to place your trust and your hope in Him (Psalm 43:5).
4. God wants you to cast your worries on Him (Psalm 55:22)
5. God’s wants to be your strength (Psalm 46:1)
6. Christ cares for you in your worries (1 Peter 5:7)
7. God is always with you (Psalm 16:8)
8. Sometimes sin causes our depression (25:17-18)
9. God’s love provides peace and overcomes our emotions (John 16:33)
10. God is strong in your weakness (2 Corinthians 12:9-10)
11. If we keep our mind on Christ, he will give us peace (Isaiah 26:3)
