Today,

Today, I will start using my depression as a reminder to stay close to God.

When I think I can’t go on, instead of getting discouraged, I will turn to God, who will give me the strength to take more steps.

God's Promise to Me:
"But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong."
2 Corinthians 12:9-10
