depression

After her death, we learned that Mother Teresa struggled with bouts of depression.  Some people were shocked.

Why were they shocked?  Because we have this silly notion that truly spiritual people do not have problems.  That is silly.  We are all human.  Being spiritual is not being problem free, being spiritual is finding the Shepherd in your dark valleys.

Never feel embarrassed because you have a problem.   We all have them.  Open your heart to God and throw yourself upon Him.  Let the consolation of the Holy Spirit comfort you.  It is ok to be broken.  You don't have to be perfect.  You can't be perfect.

God loves you anyway.  There is no need to pretend.  Fall into his loving arms.

It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
