Why am I so depressed?
Psalm 42:5, HCSB
Why this turmoil within me?
Put your hope in God, for I will still praise Him,
my Savior and my God.
God should be our greatest desire, and sometimes we focus on something else or He is calling us to think of others with His love and will by allowing sadness, depression, and anxiety. Prayer and praise to our Savior will restore our desire.
I remember this as I pour out my heart:
Psalm 42:4, HCSB
how I walked with many,
leading the festive procession to the house of God,
with joyful and thankful shouts.
God should be our greatest desire, and our time with His Church should be the reminder of His faithfulness and reason to celebrate His coming to us, pushing us to love Him even more.
My tears have been my food day and night,
Psalm 42:3, HCSB
while all day long people say to me,
“Where is your God?”
God should be our greatest desire, and this is a help when times are hard and people reject the gospel and mock us. We trust His faithfulness and await His return.
I thirst for God, the living God.
Psalm 42:2, HCSB
When can I come and appear before God?
God should be our greatest desire, and coming into His presence through reading the Bible, prayer, and being with the Church are the start. Our hope is eternity through Christ.
As a deer longs for streams of water,
Psalm 42:1, HCSB
so I long for You, God.
God should be our greatest desire, our help in our greatest need and our continual joy in all of life.
You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.
Jeremiah 29:13, HCSB
God is faithful, and He seeks us out and draws us in as we also seek Him. Believe in His promises and goodness for eternity, knowing He can save us.
For everyone who asks receives, and the one who searches finds, and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.
Matthew 7:8, HCSB
God is faithful, and He will always provide us what we need. We may not understand what we need, but we can know that He will use us to spread His glory and bring us to Himself in eternity.
But be doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
James 1:22, HCSB
We need God for this life and the next, and He empowers us to live for Him to live out His commands, including spreading the gospel and leading others to eternal life.
There is no one holy like the Lord. There is no one besides You! And there is no rock like our God.
1 Samuel 2:2, HCSB
We need God for this life and the next, for He is the only God who is sovereign over all and faithful in all things. We can believe amd trust in Him, as shown through the cross.
