I know I post these regularly, but tonight I'm not feeling all that good. I was depressed at first over something small but eventually I was depressed by something bigger. And some days the old feelings of latent (possibly even imagined) agnosticism keeps coming back. I would really appreciate some of the prayers.

Thank you.

In my prayers. As someone whose struggled with depression and the question of whether there is any meaning in all that seems to be simply chaos, all I can say is that sometimes you just have to endure, pray hard, read the Bible and trust in God's will that when you step back you'll see why the things in your life had to happen. I'm not saying this will be instantaneous. The Jews struggled in the wilderness for fourty years before they saw the Promised Land... Job struggled with God for a long time before he saw his faith strengthened BECAUSE of that doubt and depression. Unless you know real hardship and doubt, you can't know that the doubt is a load of crap unless you confront it... sorry lack of eloquence tonight... not uncommon for me. ^___^

King David said it a bit better:

"Why are you in despair, O my soul?
And why have you become disturbed within me?
Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him,
The help of my countenance and my God. " - Psalms 42:11

Keep strong brother,

Temulin

I will pray.
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share

And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence.
