Verse:
Psalm 61:3
For Your have been a refuge for me, a tower of strength against the enemy


Journaling is behind the photo
I have been battling depression for a long time but it got worse when my son was born in 1998. I felt hopeless, alone and isolated from everyone even my new born son. I wanted the pain to go away and it just was getting worse. It consumed me but I tried meds and it did not work. I even opened the bible and still the enemy was all over me. I remember that day that changed everything. It saved me. It was cold day and I was alone at home with my son. He was crying so much, I did not know what to do so I let him stay in his crib and walked toward the porch in my nightgown. It was cold and snowing and I looked up in the sky and asked for help. I did not know what to do and I was so scared. I need help and needed sign that it will be alright. I was at that point desperate and scared of this enemy called depression. I sat on the snow and that moment warm hands wrapped around me and picked me up. It was my husband. he told me that he had to come home early from work. He felt that God came to him to tell him to come home and be with me. I knew he did and I knew my husband would be my strength to overcome this. It took awhile but I did destroy the enemy inside of me. God and my husband were my saviors that night and brought me back to be ME again. I thank God for bring the sign that I needed and thank Him for always being there when I feel the enemy creeps up time from time. I know HIS Word will be my salvation and my husband for his love.

Lucy, this layout brought tears to my eyes..I think most of us mothers can relate in a small way. How amazing that God was always there for you and that you have such a wonderful husband that hears His voice. You are truly blessed!
