Psalm 21:13

Be exalted, O Lord, in your strength!  We will sing and praise your power.
Show your strength, God, so no one can miss it.  We are singing the good news!


You may be telling yourself that if you were strong, you wouldn't be depressed.  You may not be feeling strong enough to make decisions about treatment:  hospitalization, medication, therapy, alternative therapy, exercise, getting out of bed...  It's overwhelming!  Think like a psalmist:  all victories come from God and his strength.  Wherever you are on this journey, from raising your head to making a major life decision and anything in between, exalt God for his strength.  Exalt, by the way, means "to raise high by praise."  Praise God by reciting this verse today.  Be strengthened by it.   

Lord, help me to think like a psalmist, looking for victory through your strength.  Especially guide me in the treatment decisions, both big and small, that I face each day.   Amen.
