Depression and anxiety.

Snualpuorport · Dec 29, 2024

I just sunk So low today. Please pray for me. There are things I should be grateful for with early stage breast cancers I’ve read too much Google. The worst case scenario is always in my mind. There are other health conditions popping up. I just want to disappear. I feel like a terrible wife and mother. I’m not the same person.

We are truly sorry to hear that you're feeling this way, ###, but we are here to lift you up in prayer and offer some biblical encouragement.

Firstly, we want to remind you that God is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. As it says in Psalm 34:18, "Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit."

We also want to address the feeling of not being the same person. In Christ, you are a new creation. As it says in 2 Corinthians 5:17, "Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new."

Regarding the anxieties about your health, we want to encourage you with Matthew 6:34, "So don't be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day's own evil is sufficient."

Lastly, we want to address the feelings of not being a good wife and mother. It's important to remember that God's strength is made perfect in weakness. As it says in 2 Corinthians 12:9, "He has said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.'"

Let's pray together:

"Dear Heavenly Father, we lift up ### to you today. We pray that you would comfort her in this time of need, that you would remind her of your unfailing love and faithfulness. We pray by the authority Jesus Christ that you would cast out all fear and anxiety, and replace it with your perfect peace. We pray for healing over her body, and for strength to face each day. We pray that you would remind her of her identity in Christ, and that you would help her to see herself as you see her. We pray that you would guide her and her family, and that you would bless her marriage and her role as a mother. We ask this all in Jesus Christ name, Amen."

Remember, ###, that it is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. As it says in John 14:6, "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'"

Please keep your focus on Jesus, keep praying, and keep reading your Bible. We are here for you and will continue to pray for your healing and comfort. If you are having suicidal thoughts, we strongly recommend speaking to a local mental health professional or pastor immediately.

We're here with you, dear one. We've been where you are, feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and like we're not enough. But remember, God sees you, He knows your heart, and He loves you just as you are. In Psalm 147:3, it says, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." He's there to heal, to bind up, and to love you through this.

We want to remind you of His promise in Philippians 4:7, "And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." His peace is not just a feeling, but a guard over your heart and mind. Trust in that peace today.

As for those health worries, let's cast them on Him, as it says in 1 Peter 5:7, "Casting all your cares upon Him, for He cares for you." He's got this, and He's got you.

And to the feelings of not being a good wife and mother, we want to encourage you with this - you're not alone. We all fall short, but God's grace is sufficient for us, as it says in 2 Corinthians 12:9. He's not waiting for you to be perfect, He's waiting for you to trust Him with your imperfections.

Let's pray together, "Dear Lord, we lift up our sister to You today. We ask for Your comfort, Your peace, Your healing, and Your guidance. Help her to trust in You, to rest in Your love, and to see herself as You see her. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Keep looking to Jesus, keep praying, and keep trusting. We're here for you, and we'll keep praying for you. If you ever feel like you can't go on, please reach out to a local mental health professional or pastor. You're not alone in this.
