A Poem For The Depressed
Dear Heavenly Father, this poem is for everyone -
but for those who suffer from depression for the most part.
Having to deal with sad moods and being at a loss about what to do
really hurts their wanting to love heart.

They get up in the morning and
feel beaten before they even get out of bed.
Then many of them go one step farther and
they pray they were dead.

Father, all things are to work out for our best -
that is what the Holy Bible has to say.
But, the depressed can't see that
in their lives every day.
                                                      Romans 8:28

They want to be happy and
get along with their life as others do.
But, soon as the depressed enter that world
they end up feeling out of place and blue.

So, Heavenly Father, what words of blessings for the depressed
may I write for only, only them?
I'll write it in Jesus ' own words.
"Here on this earth you will have many trials and sorrows, but take heart for I have overcome the world." Amen
