Depression Sucks

Depression sucks all rational thoughts from your brain Body aches and it feels like an empty crumpled sack Your heart grieves for many things and tries to keep up When your brain starts cycling thoughts like a fast moving train But depression doesn’t like to work alone he needs his friends So he invites stress, anxiety, doubt and guilt to the party Stress and anxiety are a couple one never far from the other Doubt has no self-confidence and guilt is always just around the bend You try to keep them out but they always find their way in They never come to lift you up but to leave you feeling helpless Rolling around in your head one fighting the other for their turn Stress is first then anxiety chimes in doubt follows but guilt usually wins So the next time they want to come over and have a party in your head Invite joy, happiness and contentment you can find them hanging out with Jesus They won’t even come over if they hear Jesus is there standing at the door So Invite Jesus, he is always available and brings the best wine and bread

Depression sucks. Anti-depressants help but true happiness comes through spiritual living. Inspiring! Hugs.
