No psychologist would prescribe anti-depressants for you?

Do you have a pastor or family member you can talk to?

Already been to a psychologist. If I do any drugs, I'm going back to LSA and going on a trip. Screw pharmaceuticals.

First, I would remind you that the Bible says there is “no new thing under the sun”. This becomes all too evident when I hear you say, “No psychologist would help”. You see, that very statement was part of a prayer I made 20 years ago.

In great despair and with nowhere else to turn I prayed to God and said, “My way isn’t working and no psychologist, counselor, preacher or any other person on this earth can help me. God, You are the only One that can help me, I need your guidance in my life and a relationship with You so I can begin doing things Your way, but I don’t know how to even hear You so I can know the right direction.”

In my heart I had put my only hope in the wisdom of God and His guidance that night and I felt a strange sense of peace and comfort in doing so but I still didn’t know how to hear Him.

The next day still feeling that unfamiliar strange sense of peace and comfort, I picked up a Bible someone had given me years before and began searching it for any answers. Knowing nothing I turned to the beginning and starting reading Genesis, well, I soon realized I’d heard about the apple thingy before and didn’t see how that was going to help me begin a relationship with Him. So I keep searching.

I next starting thumbing through and saw “Job”, and I thought, oh, here we go, like I don’t got enough on my hands without another “job” to do to earn my keep and decided to look further. I’m serious, I thought it was going to be about getting a job and believed that was about all I’d heard before from preachers was that I had to straighten up and get a religious job. Haha.

...So, I moved on and came across the Book of John, and thought, that sounds like a friendly name and so decided to begin to read there and to my surprise it was talking about the beginning as well. I read the first chapter and suddenly began seeing these Words as God’s letter to me and Him speaking to me and explaining that in a sense of light coming into my life through the Word. I read the first part of that chapter again and again and was brought to tears in the reality that I was recognizing that God was answering my prayers about how to hear Him. BTW, I’d been too tough for tears for many years before that day.

In amazement and with tears in my eyes I moved on to see what else I might find and right away happened to turn to Mathew 7 which again confirmed that God had heard my prayer and was speaking to me. It said:

Mat 7:7-8

(7) Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:

(8) For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

…and right then I realized I had asked God for the way to hear Him, that perhaps He has guided my hand when I picked up the Bible and began to seek Him, but none-the-less I did seek Him, and He had opened up the door to me to hear Him just as these Words promised!! I saw the truth in these Words, I felt like a fool that I had never turned to them before and had merely gone about trying to do things my way. I cried and cried that day while I felt like God’s hand was on my shoulder guiding me and my love toward Him and my faith in the truth of His Word grew beyond my wildest imagination. In the following days as He worked changes in my life and brought me peace I never thought was possible.

I tell you this because although the wisdom of this world may be “empty, pointless, and monotonous” I want to remind you that God’s wisdom, given though His Word, is not and there is always hope in Him. Just as He promises in the above scripture.

God Bless.

My mothers 1st born child contracted Cerebral Palsy at age 2 fad for the rest of here 39 years of life my sister was trapped in a body that didn't work. She could not speak, go to the bathroom on her own, walk, move (no mobility) & completely dependent on others to feed, clothe, clean her.....yada yada. Most of the care giving was my mother.....and when she lost her husband (he was 39 YO) she had to also provide income as well. With all that said, my mom made sure we had food, clothing & shelter.....and educations. So please dont tell me that you have it rough. My mom kept a roof over our heads, dealt with my sister, was a Godly women & buried her daughter, husband, mother & father. She finally died of pancreatic cancer at 70, never having did a blessed thing for herself....always helping others.

so please look at the good things you have, thank God for your life & dedicate your life to Christ.....I assure you, He loves you & you will have rewards in heaven.
