Depression
Scripture and encouragement for seasons of depression and emotional heaviness.
Selected Sub-Tab
Matthew 11:28-30
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls."
Jesus invites the weary and burdened, language that fits the weight of depression, to Himself for soul-rest. The rest He offers is relational, not merely the absence of trouble. Coming to Him is the first practical step out of isolation.
