I was broken in 1000 pieces

I have suffered severely from depression on so many occasions. I got to a point in my life where I felt like the enemy was going to defeat me, it would just be a matter of time before my downfall. I was completely wrong. When I hit rock bottom the Holy Spirit began to speak to me through others. For at least (2) years I had prayed for God to send me more Christian friends. For quite awhile nothing happened. Yet, at the very last second God just like dropped all these awesome people into my life at just the very right time. I had hit the lowest point in my life with depression and I was feeling defeated and completely out of energy. Physically I had no motivation at all. Through all the amazing people God had placed in my life He began to speak truth into my life and gave me the strength to pray against the lies of the enemy. I can't speak for anyone else who may read this that struggles with depression but I wll say I serve a God who renews me every day and He has defeated the enemy of depression and of lies. I know for a fact that satan has come to lie, steal and destroy whatever he can. God has come to save and give hope to the weary and love to the lost. Right now I volunteer for a faith-based organization in Denver, Colorado titled Dry Bones Denver. The Dry Bones name is in reference to Ezekiel 37 where God brings life into bones that are broken and totally destroyed. I thank God every day for placing people in my life who love me and hold me accountable. What an engine of hope and change. PRaise GOD

Thank you for sharing your testimony; it does help me praise God! I appreciate the joy and encouragement your words offer. I am glad you shared the importance of becoming involved in helping others. Many are deceived in thinking they are alone and beyond help. I am grateful for people like you who have suffered through these experiences and emerge to guide others to healing. I am motivated to thank God for your example and the work of your organization, and I pray for your continued blessings!

I think some people may have misconstrued my speaking on my struggle with depression. I am in a daily battle against my severe clinical depression. I must give all of it over to God. For He is the one who fights for me. IT is a daily declaration of faith and hope in Him.
Please remember this.
thank you
