Unlike human therapists, God is always available and accessible. We don’t have to make an appointment in order to talk with him. We just have to fully commit ourselves to him. He has loved us so much even after our sins He forgives us. If we fully accept that we have done wrong and ask God to forgive us.

Whenever we feel depressed, God becomes our support system. He guides us through all aspects of Life. He gives us strength and hope through his wonderful scriptures. We must fully believe in him and submit ourselves to him. God will never leave us or forsake us. He truly cares for his children. If we obey Him will surely never stay long in depression.
