Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to your life? (Luke 12:25, NIV).
September 11, 2013
Dear God:
I'm depressed. I have a strong desire to sleep--to sleep for long periods of time. There's a heaviness upon me that's paralyzing at times. I want to keep living and I don't have suicidal thoughts--I just want to lay comatose until this heaviness passes away.
I wake up anxious and worried about personal and professional matters. I don't like waking up as aforementioned because I had a regular habit of waking up and giving You praise immediately. If I had my calendar in view, I could probably pinpoint some of the days I began to feel heavy....
What happened to my fervor in wanting to talk with You daily?
What happened to my desire to read Your Word and meditate?

I feel like my energy vaporized. I woke up and my joy was gone. I woke up and my laughter was gone. I woke up and my confidence was gone. I woke up knowing I needed immediate professional medical care.
As challenged as I feel, I thank You for waking me up.
In Jesus name...AMEN.
I know from life experience that challenges do not discriminate--every individual on planet Earth experiences challenges. The theme scripture for this 5-part blog series is Luke 12:25, NIV: Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to your life? It is my hope that this series will inspire you to spend "a single hour" communicating with God.
