from depression to Jesus

I had turned to so many other ’’good’’ things trying to survive depression. Through that, I forgot the one truly good thing, Jesus. This bible study did not have to talk about all of the psychological parts of my struggles, or the different family dynamics, or the season of life I am in. Every day it took me to the Word of God addressing my heart and my sin while leading me to Jesus who covers, heals, and restores all things. The only thing I needed was right in front of me, which was God’s Word. This study helped me when I could not lead myself to truth. It helped me dive in full force to the root of who Jesus is and who I am in Him. It rids of self-condemnation and the identity of my past. The past and struggles are a part of my redemption story, but they are not something constantly controlling me anymore. They just help me see Jesus more.
