Throughout the last six years I have prayed to God and Jesus Christ to help make me stong and to help me to fight this depression and anxiety without the use of medication.
I would love to be able to be medication free and to feel alive and strong like I did over six years ago but I just don't seem to be able to get there.
Maybe my faith is not strong enough, I have to admit at my lowest points I feel completely athiest, I can't understand why God could let me go through all of this and not help me. I know there is the story about "footsteps on the beach" but every day feels like a daily battle.
I hear of some people who reach rock bottom and then they say a simple prayer inviting Jesus Christ into their lives and then suddenly (so one person told me) she was filled with the power of the holy spirit and the next day felt alive and full of joy, she said her eyes that had seemed dead before suddenly shone with life.
Why can't this happen to me? I keep praying but seem to get little relief.
Has anyone on this board been helped by faith healing?
Denise
