Depression
Scripture and encouragement for seasons of depression and emotional heaviness.
Selected Sub-Tab
Psalm 121:1-2
"I lift up my eyes to the mountains, where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth."
Help is located outside the self, in the Creator. When depression turns the gaze inward toward emptiness or failure, this psalm lifts the eyes to the Lord who made heaven and earth and is therefore able to help.
