Depression:
There is hope

 
 
 		 
depression - getting to the root of the pain

"I am so depressed tonight, O God.
I feel as if I am the sole target
of an enemy barrage -
that all the demons of hell are bent
upon damning my soul for eternity.

Consume, O God, these demons that depress,
these enemies that plague my soul.
May the whirlwind of Your Spirit
sweep them out of my life forever.
May I awaken with a heart full of joy,
and with the strength and the courage
to walk straight and secure
in the dangerous
and difficult paths before me."

Psalm 83, Leslie F Brandt

Life can sometimes seem not worth living, unbearable. Closing in. Not making sense at all.
Maybe some past mistakes are catching up with you? Illness or opposition could be wearing you down? Perhaps you feel cheated - or right out of luck? Psychology, psychoanalysis, drugs - do they really get to the root and deal with the pain?

How to enter the extreme river.

"Our world has slipped its moorings:
our population threatenbs to overwhelm us;
our waste producst are about to smother us;
our modern weapons are capable
of obliterating us.
Because we are incapable of loving and living
for one another,
we are about to be destroyed
by our own self-centeredness
and to turn this beautiful world You have given us
into a wasted and desolate planet.
It all seems so unreal
and I feel so small and insignificant
in such a world."
Leslie Brandt. Psalms Now
