Shlomo Lkhoolkhoon,

Please pray for me. Many here do not know that I suffer from sever depression. I am just comming out of an episode that lasted the last few months, and now it looks like I might be put on perminent disability.

I am scared, and I do not know what else to say.

I will participate as much as I can, but I do hope for understanding of why I might not be posting from time to time.

With all my love.

Fush BaShlomo Lkhoolkhoon,
Yuhannon

I prayed for everyon here on the forum at Church tonight.

Depression is a terrible struggle, but with your faith, I imagine God has other work for you. Disability is a hard thing to accept (I know I had to face it - though with other types of probems), but sometimes one stays busier on disability on the Lord's schedule than one could ever imagine. Sometimes just having the grace to sit and listen to his creation is an awesome job, few take that time with Jesus. You will be ok.

Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God, place everything for our dear brother in order and grant him peace in his day. God bless you!

Dear Yuhannon,

I am sorry. May St. George, who is patron of many things, including mental illness, intercede to the Lord our God on your behalf.

I pray that you will feel better sooner, dear brother in Christ. Post when you feel like it and when you think it will help you feel better and rest assured that we will remember you in prayer...

In Christ,
Alice

Prayers for my brother and friend, may his emotional sufferings be eased and he be granted peace of mind.
