This was so good for my soul: Devotional: Did you know that a number of people in Scripture, including Jesus Christ, expressed very raw emotions that mirror the symptoms of depression? Here are just a few of many: King David: "Why are you cast down, O my soul, and why are you in turmoil within me?" -Psalm 42:11a The Prophet Jeremiah: "Why did I come out from the womb to see toil and sorrow, and spend my days in shame?" -Jeremiah 20:18 Job: "And now my soul is poured out within me; days of affliction have taken hold of me. The night racks my bones, and the pain that gnaws me takes no rest." -Job 30:16 Jesus Christ: "And He said to them, 'My soul is very sorrowful, even to death. Remain here and watch.'" -Mark 14:34a It can be very comforting to know that even among the "giants of the faith," including God Himself, the Messiah, that sorrow and suffering are common to mankind. You are NOT alone.
