Opening your heart out to the Lord through prayer helps. Have you spoken to him regarding the reasoning for your depression?. The enemy commonly attacks people with depression. I'll pray for you, the suggestion I'd give is to go into prayer more. Spiritual warfare is always happening & the enemy never sleeps & likes attacking Gods people.
I feel depressed and... well, empty. I honestly think that ive been thinking to big. Thinking to big about life, and why we're here. My mind is wondering places it dosnt need to go, i say. Anyway, any prayers and advice would be great. Thanks to all, and God bless
I don't know if you are or aren't, but if not, I'd like to encourage you to get into a bible study. Being in God's word really helps me to fight depression because with more understanding about God's character, who He is and what His will is, it helps to change my worldly thinking to His way of thinking, and it helps to keep my mind continuously on Him and His word throughout the day.
Probably not everyone will agree with me, but sometimes being depressed or feeling empty is good for us. We're drawn to Him during those times.
May you sense the love of our Heavenly Father is such a way that melts away the empty feeling and fills your heart anew with His care for you.
Hugs, love and prayers!
PS Praise and worship music can really help too. Play some right there where you're at, raise your hands towards heaven and worship Him.
Huglife... Life can be challenging at times for all of us. As Christians the Lord equips us daily with everything we need to fight the "good fight of faith" Sometimes its easy to over think life by trying to wrap our carnal minds around why were here etc... I agree with the others who have posted prayers for you. Finding a good bible study would bring you a lot of clarity & peace. Jesus, says "Just Believe" in Him. That's where your faith will begin to grow, as you allow yourself to take that step of faith & Trust in your Heavenly Father. Its so important to allow the Holy Spirit to renew your mind & thought life.. Isaiah 55:8 Isaiah[SUP]8 [/SUP]“For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,”
declares the Lord.
[SUP]9 [/SUP]“As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
neither are your ways my ways,”
declares the Lord.

O LORD, my heart is not proud, nor my eyes haughty;
Nor do I involve myself in great matters,
Or in things too difficult for me. Surely I have composed and quieted my soul;
Like a weaned child rests against his mother,
My soul is like a weaned child within me.
O Israel, hope in the LORD
From this time forth and forever. (Ps 131)
hugs! praying. ♥

[FONT="][FONT="]The cords of death entangled me,
the anguish of the grave came over me;
I was overcome by distress and sorrow.

“Lord, save me!”[/FONT]

[FONT="][FONT="]5 The Lord is gracious and righteous;
our God is full of compassion.
6 The Lord protects the unwary;
when I was brought low, he saved me.[/FONT]

[FONT="][FONT="]7 Return to your rest, my soul,
for the Lord has been good to you.[/FONT]

my eyes from tears,
my feet from stumbling,[/FONT]
