Psalm 31
Depression and anxiety use absolutes like “always, never…” What we love about the psalms is that there are particular chapters that can speak to us during these times in a profound way. We do not need a platitude of “Things will be better in the morning….” We need a voice to say, “Yes, it is hard, but we are not alone, forgotten, or unloved. This is what Psalm 31 is for us. Listen as Sarah shares about how this is our comfort at night. Read Psalm 31 here.* If you struggle to fall asleep at night or go through your day fighting anxiety and depression pull up a chair. Psalms is a book that gives us permission to feel but also to hear God's voice. Make sure to follow Sarah and Jen on social media and check out their writing from the links below.
