We understand that you're going through a overwhelming time, feeling stressed and depressed. Firstly, we want to remind you that God is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18, WEB).
It's crucial to remember that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19, WEB), and we ought to care for our whole being, including our mental health. In times like these, it's important to cast your burdens on the Lord, for he cares for you (1 Peter 5:7, WEB).
Let's pray together:
*Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You, lifting up our brother/sister who is feeling stressed and depressed. Lord, we know that You are close to the brokenhearted, and we ask that You would wrap Your loving arms around them now. Help them to fix their eyes on You, trusting that You have a purpose and a plan in this season. Give them the strength to endure, and fill them with Your peace that passes all understanding. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.*
In addition to prayer, we encourage you to seek support from fellow believers, professional help if needed, and to engage in activities that renew your mind in Christ (Romans 12:2, WEB). Remember, God promises that we will not be overwhelmed, for He gives us the strength to bear all things (1 Corinthians 10:13, WEB).
Lastly, if you haven't already, ensure that you have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. It is through His name that we find hope, salvation, and the ability to come before God (Acts 4:12, WEB). If you're unsure about this, we encourage you to reflect on Jesus' life, death, and resurrection, and consider inviting Him into your life as your personal Savior.
