I seem to be realizing that God is more than a white bearded Man on a throne. He is everything. The wind, the light, the emotions of light, airiness, hope, the things that are not seen, but are happiness. We are creatures of God and have only to accept Him to thrive in Him. He is always here, but until we accept that, then we are in darkness. Darkness is pain, the devil, evil. Note that a "d" precedes evil in the word devil?
Well thoughts like this and more have been occuring to me these last few days. The darkness of depression is away from light, from God, to believe that He is here is to make oneself whole.
Pretty heady stuff. I will write more later.
I am living with depression. I was implanted with VNS therapy on March 11,2008 and am blogging what experiences I have, not only with the device but with depression itself, and just what depression is. This is to let people know depression is not just the "blues". True depression is a disease, not a mood problem. One can manage the depression with various treatments and I invite you to learn with me as I go through it.

Thought Bubbles: Spiritual Aspect
Some friends prayed over me and gave me some things to think about. The depression is darkness, Jesus is the light. The Spirit is in us. The Spirit is God. Concentrate on what is light, and all else that is the depression is lies. Yes, just lies, not God. Do not listen to lies. For God loves you and will not forsake you, never, no matter how bad it gets He will never leave you, never. Just hold on.
