Scriptures About Depression
Comentary:
Never let yourself fall into depression because God is with you helping you every step of the way. Remember that we are many times the hands and feet of Christ so go out and tell someone today how much you appreciate them and what they do for you. Tell them you love them and that their life has encouraged yours in some way. It could keep them from depression... I love you all! Have a wonderful day.
