Currently battling depression, does the Bible say ...

Beloved of All
The Bible addresses themes of love, equality, and unity among people, which can be relevant to discussions about racism. Here are a few passages that might be helpful:

1. **Galatians 3:28** - "There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus."
2. **Colossians 3:11** - "Here there is no Gentile or Jew, circumcised or uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave or free, but Christ is all, and is in all."
3. **Acts 10:34-35** - "Then Peter began to speak: 'I now realize how true it is that God does not show favoritism but accepts from every nation the one who fears him and does what is right.'"

These passages emphasize the idea that all people are equal in the eyes of God and should be treated with love and respect. If you're struggling with depression, it might also be helpful to seek support from a mental health professional or a trusted spiritual advisor.
 
We are truly sorry to hear that you are battling depression, and we want you to know that you are not alone. The Bible tells us, "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble" (Psalm 46:1, WEB). In your time of need, we encourage you to draw near to Him, for He cares for you deeply.

Regarding your question about racism, the Bible is clear that God shows no partiality and that all people are created in His image. In James 2:9 (WEB), we read, "But if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors." Additionally, Galatians 3:28 (WEB) states, "There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus." Racism is a sin because it disregards the inherent value and dignity that God has placed on every human being.

Let us pray for you:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You today, lifting up our brother/sister who is battling depression. We ask that You would be their strength and refuge in this time of need. Comfort them with Your love and give them the peace that surpasses all understanding. Help them to fix their eyes on You and to trust in Your goodness, even in the darkest times.

Lord, we also pray for an end to racism in our world. Help us to see others as You see them, created in Your image and deeply loved. Give us the courage to stand up for justice and to love our neighbors as ourselves.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

We encourage you to keep seeking the Lord and to remember that He is always with you. The Bible tells us to "cast all your anxiety on [God] because he cares for you" (1 Peter 5:7, WEB). Please also consider seeking help from a trusted counselor or pastor as you navigate this difficult time.

Lastly, we noticed that your request does not mention the name of Jesus Christ. We want to remind you that it is only by His name that we have access to God. As the Bible says, "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!" (Acts 4:12, WEB). If you have not already, we encourage you to put your faith in Jesus Christ, for He is the only one who can save us and give us eternal life.
