Anxiety, Depression, Suicidal Thoughts

I felt the need to create this video for anyone clicking through YouTube possibly struggling with anxiety, depression or suicidal thoughts. I specifically wanted to make this video for you. As a young girl I struggled a lot with my emotions. I really couldn’t put my finger on it but wrestled a good bit with anxiety and depression. When I was in sixth grade I got in a fight with my mom over my hair and ended up taking an entire bottle of sleeping pills. I landed in the hospital for about a week and began therapy. Life was very challenging going through adolescents.

Fast forward to later in life, after having my daughter, I struggled with postpartum depression. The doctor put me on an antidepressant for a few years. For many years I struggled on and off with anxiety and depression and just a roller coaster of emotions. I am no longer on medication and no longer struggle with the depths of anxiety and depression. I do struggle at different times with my moods being up and down, just natural human emotions but I honestly do not have it any more.

The reason I remain healthy and healed is because of God’s word, His truth and His spirit inside of me. I remain confident and healed because whenever I struggle emotionally He is the one that I seek. He is the one that brings clarity, wisdom and healing in my life.

Psalm 23
“The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. he restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.”

If you are struggling with anxiety, depression or suicidal thoughts I strongly encourage you to read Psalm 23 out loud over and over and let it get deep within your spirit. Even before you begin to read it ask God what He is speaking directly to you through His words. At times in our life we feel very lonely and feel like we are the only one having a hard time. I am here to tell you that I know that I know that I know that you are never alone and I am never alone. God is with me always. His spirit is inside of me and inside of you. He will speak to you, direct your paths, comfort you and protect you.

Simply speak the name of Jesus and healing will begin immediately.

“By faith in the name of Jesus, this man whom you see and know has been made strong. It is Jesus’ name and the faith that comes through Him that has given him this complete healing in your presence.” Acts 3:16

Final Days on Earth … Transitioning into Eternity

I’m soaked in tears this morning. There’s so much I want to share with you through the computer screen, and I don’t have enough words to express everything that I am feeling. A year ago I spoke the words “What better gift could I give someone than to be with them in their final days.” Little did I know how precisely the Lord listens to my ever word and would allow my deepest desire to come true.

What prompted this longing to spend time with others in their last days was because I had the opportunity to be by my mother-in-law’s bedside ten years ago as she transitioned into eternity. I sat holding her hand, singing “Jesus Loves Me” and reading Psalm 23 in her last days, and I can honestly say it was the most beautiful sacred experience of my life. She was in a hospice house, and the workers there were like real angels here on earth.

Last year, as I reflected on my experience with my dear mother-in-law, I knew it was time to give back to others walking through their last days, but I wasn’t sure exactly what that meant. After a little time visiting hospice and researching how I could make a difference, I got distracted with life and didn’t do anything with it. However, God was not going to let me forget the deep yearning within my heart.

At the end of last year, God brought not one but two beautiful people in my life that were dying from cancer. I had several months with them. We had conversations about God, heaven, cancer, life, love … and when we talked it was if we had known each other our entire lives.

Last night I held the hand of my second angel as she begins to transition into eternity. It’s hard to articulate this amazing surreal interaction. All I know is that it touched a place in my soul that I did not know existed. The unbelievable chance to connect heart to heart – soul to soul – in someone’s final days on earth is the greatest gift of my entire life. There is nothing more fulfilling. For some people it might sound a bit strange that this is beyond gratifying …. but what I know in the depths of my soul is that we have nothing to fear and eternity is the best transition that WILL EVER happen for us.

My new lifelong prayer is that everyone has the opportunity to experience Jesus in such a profound way here on earth that they will be overjoyed to go home … to heaven. Today I can honestly say my life feels complete. Each day feels like a bonus. I am living in the overflow of God’s amazing grace.
