Your first heading said, Am I to lost to be saved?

That suggest to me that you haven't yet been born again?

That has to come first dear one, You must be born again.

How is that accomplished?
Believe on the Lord, Jesus Christ,and thou shalt be saved.
Come to him in true repentance, asking forgiveness, ask him to come into your heart, and life, then have faith that he will.
The Bible says that any who will come to him ,he will not turn away., or cast out!

God paid the price for your sin's, ALL of them.
Past, present,and future.
When he died on the cross, he took on your sins, so that we could put on his righteousness.
The word also says:
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth, the Lord Jesus,and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

Depression can be an illness, and that maybe what you are suffering, and that can come just from not eating well, or to much sugar, etc. etc.
My husbands daughter suffers from depression, and she was told to take a vitamin called Relacore.

I pray this may help ,and get you on the right track, for we do need to walk in faith, trusting what we have committed unto him, he will keep unto that day.

One more thing....No sin is to great to be forgiven except the sin of unbelief.
Time to walk in faith believing.....OK? :friends:

Depression is a tough thing to experience. Do you take meds for your depression?



No one is beyond the saving power of the Lord Jesus Christ!

Good advice so far. Give your heart to Jesus, talk to a Pastor for counseling, see an MD and be checked for medical causes to depression.

I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help My help cometh from the Lord,which made heaven and earth.Psalm 121:1,2

 

[for christ]

thank you to all who replyed to my post.

I do have a really good relationship with jesus,
but what I was trying to say is , that I feel everyday I'm in a mess , and I feel like there is no way back to god ........ ok I know there might be a way back to god , but right now I just want to have god back in my life , and to feel a lot happyier , but right now , thats not happen , cos of my depression

God promised to never leave, nor forsake us.

If you feel distant it is simply you, not him, he is always faithful....

Do you have a church home?

If so, I would call the Pastor and seek council, and prayer...
Don't hang onto the negative, but draw near to God, and he will draw near to you.
He said so, and you can count on it!
Trust Him.... OK? :friends:

I feel your pain, because I am coming out of the same place. I have a disorder called Borderline Personality Disorder where my emotions roller coaster and I often fall quickly into Depression. Sometimes when walking through the wilderness of depression God seems far away and having people tell you he is is not always enough.
Just remember that you are forgiven for everything you have done everything you are doing and everything you will do.
GOD HAS A PLAN FOR YOU
Some of the best ways to help yourself alone are to go where there are people. If you feel like taking a nap, DONT. If you feel suicidal have a list of things you will do. I have a list of ten things I will do when I feel like cutting too. It includes phone calls, a walk, going to Starbucks, and the last thing is a number for a suicide hotline. It is an EMERGENCY list and it will not be my saving grace but it does help during times of deep saddness. Also, if you feel like a danger to yourself GO TO THE HOSPITAL.
I am sure this is difficult for you but Jesus is depressed with you. When you are sad so is he. God bless you in your struggle and I pray for your perserverence.

 

[Gracealone]

Yes, we all do....

Sometimes God allows trials, so that as you have been helped, you in turn can help others.
May be that is the ministry God has for you.

 

[carlos marquez]

I have lived with depression all my life.
Some caused by bad choices,and
other,by ongoing battles I tackle on
a daily basis.This is the story of my
life.I was on meds many years ago.
The state tryed to steal my soul,but
God had a different plan.
I'll tell you how I deal with my
depression.I cry out to God,and I
rejoice knowing that my weakness
make me ,that much more needy and
dependent on God's love,when I fail
and cant seem to clique with other
believers,I find comfort and peace
with God,Because He is a true friend
that sticks closer than a brother.
When Jesus gets ahold of you there
is no one that can condemn you.

Romans 8:38-39.
For I am persuaded beyond doubt (am sure)that neather death nor life,nor
angels nor principalities,nor things impending and threatening nor
things to come,nor powers,
Nor height nor depth,nor anything else in all creation will be able to seperate
us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Dont need medication
dont need brain therapy
just give me Jesus And
I'll be okay.

Awesome carlos,

Luk 15:11 And he said, A certain man had two sons:
Luk 15:12 And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living.
Luk 15:13 And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.
Luk 15:14 And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want.
Luk 15:15 And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.
Luk 15:16 And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat: and no man gave unto him.
Luk 15:17 And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father's have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger!
Luk 15:18 I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee,
Luk 15:19 And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants.
Luk 15:20 And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him.
Luk 15:21 And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son.
Luk 15:22 But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet:
Luk 15:23 And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry:
Luk 15:24 For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.
Luk 15:25 Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard musick and dancing.
Luk 15:26 And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant.
Luk 15:27 And he said unto him, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound.
Luk 15:28 And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out, and intreated him.
Luk 15:29 And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:
Luk 15:30 But as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.
Luk 15:31 And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine.
Luk 15:32 It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.

Luke 15:32

It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.

That says it all ,doesn't it.

If we would just go back to the cross, and take a good look, we would realize Jesus is more willing to forgive, and heal us, than we are to come to him.
He died, once for ALL.
Taking all our sin on himself.
Past present,and future sins.
It is finished ,he cried on the cross.
Never to die agin....once, for all.

You have God in your life. Relationship with God is not based on emotions. It's based on faith (see Eph 2:8-9 NIV & Heb 11:1 NIV). As far as the devil is concerned, he's going to keep going until he is cast into hell. But, you needn't worry so much about him. He's defeated and he knows it (see Rev 12:12 NIV)

Boanerges , thank you for your reply my post
please can you tell me what you mean by your post ???????
thanks , and god bless

 

[Boanerges]

Sorry if that seemed random or did not make sense, let me explain.

I was looking at the original title to this thread "am I to lost to be saved?" That brought to mind the testimony of our precious sister Corrie Ten Boom. She and her family were hiding Jews from the Nazi's in WW2 Germany and they were discovered. Her whole family was sent to a concentration camp and everyone of them was killed except for her. Things were so bad that she would pray for lice so the guards would not want to molest her. Starving, beaten, exposed to the elements and worked to exhaustion she lay in her bunk sing praises to God. One of the other prisoners mocked her saying that if her God was real He would not have let her be in this place. Her response was that quote "There is no pit so deep that God's love is not deeper still." God used Corrie to reach many for His kingdom.
I the thread title reminded me of the power of God's grace and His ability to reach us no matter what our circumstance.
