Psalm 89:1

I will sing of your steadfast love, O Lord, for ever; with my mouth I will proclaim your faithfulness to all generations.
Your love, God, is my song, and I’ll sing it!  I’m forever telling everyone how faithful you are.


Faith in God is a gift of the Holy Spirit.  Keeping the faith during depression is a testament to the power of the Holy Spirit.  Now you might argue and tell me how weak and almost non-existent your faith is at this point.  The hopelessness of depression feels like proof that there is no God, or worse, that God has rejected you.  But you know those are lies.  Remember the faith of the mustard seed!  Trust the Holy Spirit to maintain your faith through this illness.  By God’s grace, because of his steadfast love and faithfulness, your faith is enough.  My faith is enough.

Lord, thank-you for the blessing of faith in you.  Let me proclaim your faithfulness by depending on the power of the Holy Spirit.  Amen.
