God’s Love and Grace: A Steady Help in Mental Struggles

Strug­g­ling with men­tal he­alth – such as dep­res­si­on – can cloud how we hear God’s Word and weigh he­a­vi­ly on our faith. Though Scrip­tu­re pro­mi­ses God is near, he­arts can feel dis­tant. Words that on­ce com­for­ted may seem emp­ty, pra­yers va­nish in­to si­len­ce, and cong­re­ga­ti­on life – on­ce jo­y­ful – can feel ex­haus­ting. At ti­mes even en­te­ring church feels im­pos­sib­le.
