Good Morning! *
 
For those of you that are battling with depression, my  *"greeting" may not be welcomed by you.  I can understand that.  I just wish it was enough to lift you up out of that "pit", but I know that it takes more than just someone's "cheerful"  attitude to deliver you from your torment . . . only Jesus, and His Word can make that happen!  So, I am going to give you more than just a "Good Morning" . . . I am going to allow The Holy Spirit to show you how you got there and how you can be set free!
 
Remember, I understand that everyone who is reading this is not having this battle, but it just may let you know how to have compassion for those that are going through this . . . and I have already received emails from many who are.
 
This is the "cycle" that the devil uses to bring his evil spirit of "depression" on people ~~~~~ please hear this!  It starts with "self-condemnation" . . . which is the forerunner to "self-pity" . . . which is the forerunner to "depression" . . . which is the forerunner to "destructive behavior" . . . which will lead us again to "self-condemnation" . . . and the cycle starts all over again!  I am not just talking some kind of "theoretical" talk . . . I have already "been there, done that" and this is a revelation that The Lord gave me after HE delivered me from this "torment".  Read the last six words that I typed!  Jesus is the only one that can "remove that burden and destroy that YOKE"!  However, He wants me to go ahead and "expound" on the different things involved in the "cycle", so that you can see how you got there, and how to avoid going back there!  I will start with "self-condemnation" tomorrow.  I am going to be "speaking the truth in love" (Ephesians 4:15), and the "truth will make you free"  (John 8:32).  That scripture could apply to all of us, not only for "depression" but for anything that we need freedom from!   
 
Have a Blessed Day!!        (Who The Son sets free is free indeed!)       In His Love, Luanne
