T.O.D.A.Y.'S ENCOURAGEMENT for Sept. 02, 2010
T.O.D.A.Y. Ministries Good Morning! I will continue to share some of my
past with you all, simply out of obedience to The Lord...and believe me, I am
having to trust Him every step of the way that this is going to make a
difference in someone's life. That is what He promised me, and whatever God
promises to do...He will do! The situations that I will be sharing
with you may not be in the order that they occurred in my life, but I know that
The Lord will tie it all together and turn it into a "testimony" for His Glory! I grew up in a "dysfunctional" family.
The funny part about it (not funny,as is Ha Ha...but funny as is strange), is
that we did not know we were "dysfunctional"! I never even heard that phrase
until I was a grown woman. However, when I did find out what it meant, then I
had to admit that yes, I guess we were dysfunctional....and I was probably the
most "dysfunctional" one of them all! I guess this is leading me to talk
about my personal battle with "depression". I know, personally, why that state
of mind is sometimes called "the pits". That is exactly what "depression" is!
First of all, because it comes straight from the "pit" of Hell and it feels like
you are in a deep, dark HOLE! I know all about it and I know how it gets
started. I want to help someone avoid this "torment", so I am going to lay out
the vicious "cycle" that is involved. I will talk about the "cycle" in my next
Encouragement. I hope that you will continue to read what I have to say about
this....because Have a Blessed Day! (God has a
wonderful plan for your life!) In His Love, Luanne

I
think that The Lord wants to insert a little "humor" in to all of this, in order
to keep it from being depresssing! These messages are supposed to "encourage"
you, not make you feel sad!
