    So precious, thank you. My favourite prayer is: Lord correct me, and HE does it so kindly.

    God is always testing us his purpose is to prove that our faith is real. Even though I’m struggling I will keep faith, Since covid I fell on a terrible hardship. I lost my job for declining the vaccine. I declined due to my health conditions. I suffer from lupus, and heart disease. I’m now waitressing but not making nearly enough to get by. I’m a single mom, my husband died suddenly years ago. I’m all alone. My children are autistic and non verbal, I’m overwhelmed. I recently started homeschooling them because they were having so many issues in school including bullying. Please pray for me. I’m struggling to pay rent, struggling to buying groceries, struggling to afford the tools I need to homeschool my sons. I WANT TO GIVE UP! But I TRUST in you JESUS. Even as I struggle providing for my children. I will keep faith in God. Faith over fear. Lord hear my prayers. I don’t understand why I’m going through this hardship for so long but I trust you LORD!

    Thank you for this comforting and hopeful message. I’ve struggled with depression all my life. Usually due to circumstances, but I’m beginning to realize there may be hope in learning better ways to respond to what I can’t control. That’s my biggest problem.

    I'd like a prayer for knowing if I made the wrong decision and if I did what to do about it, regarding my home life.

    While I tend toward depression and have most of my life, the worst of it is situational. I feel hopeless and out of control of it.

    The only thing that's ever really helped me with depression is exercise.

    • @lisacadman3842
      @lisacadman3842 Год назад

      How much exercise did it take? ie., how many hours a day?

    • @Aqui..
      @Aqui.. Год назад +1

      ​@@lisacadman3842 Really not much. 30-40 mins a day. A quick walk and go fast enough for awhile to break a sweat. Just enough to get the brain chemistry righted.

    I am going down the depression path again. It is coming from being hurt deeply by a family member. I have been to my Nurse Practioner and she wants me to keep in close contact and let her know how I'm doing. I am finding out that the only thing that is helping me is reading encouraging scriptures and prayer. I am also reading again my favorite devotional My Utmost fot His Highest by Oswald Chambers. But really deep down, I want someone to come alongside of me. I am keeping on keeping on. Unfortunately I have an adrenal disease that causes hormonal anxiety. I may start journaling. Please keep me in your prayers. I am going to look for Mr. Jantz's book. I live in WA State can you suggest a Christian counselor in SW WA? Thank you❣

      @@user-on7zd8yi8g hi, you lose a small percentage of water when you drink coffee but you mostly retain the fluid.
