Crying, sitting in a dark room, lacking the motivation to do anything, not sleeping well and feeling sad and depleted all the time, are just some of the symptoms of a crushed soul.
For some, the worst place they can be is in their own head. Their mind is bombarded with negative, lifeless thoughts. It’s an internal battle that affects the external life.
You can even prosper, solve family problems, and be healthy, but if your soul is crushed you can’t enjoy any of those things because of the empty feeling inside of you.
A crushed soul stops you from dealing with any problems that come your way, it robs your strength and even your desire to live. Day and night are the same thing – you see no light.
As you may have guessed, a crushed soul is depression.
The world teaches that depression can’t be cured. That you have to learn how to manage it and be ready to deal with the sadness and lack of emotional balance. But God says otherwise. Faith in God can heal a crushed soul.
Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. (Psalm 30:5)
The joy spoken about here, is the happiness of your soul. If you are feeling crushed inside then it is time to pay more attention to what God says and less attention to what society is telling you.It’s time to ask God to for this joy that He gives. You may not see a way out, but He does.
God wants you out of that situation. The heavy, oppressive feeling can be beat. Allow His Power into your soul.
Don’t believe in the lies of this world.
May the God of the Bible bless you.
Bishop Joshua Fonseca
