My beloved and esteemed Lanae Hale in Christ:
I thank our GOD ALL MIGHTY that you sound more positive now than in your previous message some two weeks ago.
Abigail Tanori, Web Community Manager, commented succinctly on your last post: “Hearing Lanae’s testimony is hearing something so pure and genuine.”
Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free” (John 8: 31-32)–free of depression, too!
You know the truth of your “depression,” be it biological or psychological or both.
Medical science and psychoanalysis may help alleviate your depression.
Most importantly, however, is that: “As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, O God.” (Psalm 42:1-3).
Please continue to trust in the Lord.
The Lord will always be at our side, and He will never abandon you or anyone of us.
Thank you.
May GOD our Father shower His inestimable and infinite blessings upon you;
GODSPEED, always and forevermore,
Mary Sun.
