I was sitting around the semicircle of chairs. It was Tuesday morning, the day when our ladies bible study meets at my church. We were going around the room, taking turns sharing prayer requests. I wrote down each person’s request: health concerns, legal issues, rest, healthy pregnancy, etc.

Then it was my turn. Feeling the Spirit’s prompting, I stepped out and requested prayer for my struggle with depression. I opened up about my battle and the challenges I’ve faced.

I wasn’t sure if I had made the right decision, going deeper as I did.

  1. Love you, Christina! God has had His hand on you through this whole time.
    Love, Christina

  2. “But I know that I am completely loved and accepted by God and this gives me confidence to reach out, no matter the outcome.”

    -This reminds me of a book I read a few years back that I might venture to say is my most favorite book ever!! Have you read A Search for Significance? If not, it is a must. I know you love books, so do I. This changed me, it truly did. It helps the with pain of rejection and I so often struggle with rejection. Loved your post!

  3. That is great… See, kindred spirits, I tell you! This book is the only book that I read over and over (although, 1000 gifts might be added to this list). Every time I pick it up, the Holy Spirit teaches me something!
