If you are going through a tough or terrible time, if you are hurt, sad, mad, tired of everything, stressed out, depressed, hurting yourself,...God is the answer. God is the one who can free you from what you are going through and when come to God and worship and pray(even if you don’t feel like it, even if you just want to disappear or be gone, even if all you want to do is lay down and fall asleep, the one place you see relief from your problems,...) God will break it off your life. Ask, in faith(believing that you will receive) for His peace and he will give you peace, for His love and he will give you His love, for His joy and he will give you His joy. God’s love, peace, and joy are not like the world’s, it doesn’t fade away or last for only a second. God’s love and joy and peace last forever.
I know what I am talking about because I went through 4 times when I was depressed, each time harder than before but I knew something that was the key to my freedom - God is the only one who can break this off, God is the only one who can heal my aching heart. Each time I got depressed this went through my mind and I would finally go to my room and turn on some worship music and just start praising God(even though all I wanted to do was disappear and not do anything) and it broke off! I felt God’s presence and love all over me and I began to cry and release all the thoughts and feelings and then I felt God’s joy all over me and I began to laugh and jump up and down. One time I came in my room and on the radio was the song - “Pray, when your heart gets weak, Pray when the road gets steep, Know the Father hear through the silence and the tears you cry...” and I was like “ok I’ll pray” and I prayed and I felt God’s presence and again it fell off.
You might say I tried that and it didn’t work - stop, go back and pray again, go back and praise God. You might say I did that over and over again and it doesn’t work - keep praying, keeping praising God. Don’t give up, believe that God is going to free you from whatever it is, I don’t care if it is anorexia, suicidal thoughts, depression, some thing that you were diagnosed with that they say is incurable, anger, or cancer! God will break it off if you believe.
