What do you do on a God-less day? A day that feels heavy and purposeless? That’s a question I asked myself today. I was feeling fat, depressed and uninspired. Do you know what I mean? Truly, I know God is with me… I just can’t quite feel him. Two verses came to mind as I …
I woke up with a full mind today. You know how it goes—the long list of things you need to do, aggravated by the things you didn’t get done the day before—all keeping you from falling back to sleep. It is a tug-of-war with me. Depression keeps me frozen in place thinking about everything, which …
