Yesterday I had an experience that I can say never had happened to me in all my life. While playing golf, the golf cart brake became disengaged (or it wasn’t properly set), and while we were looking for a ball, the golf cart rolled into the water.I must tell you it was funny and embarrassing at the same time, and thanks to my daughter, Danielle, I’ve now become a celebrity on Facebook.
Needless to say, we’re having a wonderful time. Part of it is the ability to hear what the Lord is saying to us. In 1 Samuel 16:23 the scripture tells us how David was playing the harp, and when distressing spirits would come on Saul, they would leave him.
That word “distressing” could also be translated depression. We live in a day and time where a lot of people are facing depression and the antidote that helped Saul is the antidote that will help you today. When we come into the presence of the Lord with praise and worship, it lifts our spirits, encourages us, and gives us strength to fight our battles.May today be a day where your life is filled with praise and depression is far from you.
This picture is a keeper! I'm glad you were not in the cart.
ReplyDeleteI agree 100% that the best cure for depression is to get in the presence of the Lord and worship. I have found that when you get in the presence of the Lord and worship, he not only heals depression, but he heals broken hearts and even broken bodies. Praise the Lord for His infinite mercy and love.
Take care and get your rest Pastor! Don't worry, the Lord and your awesome staff have you covered.

Bill said to tell you that he has played enough with you to know that you were thinking about that next shot and not about putting on the brakes to the cart. Oh Well. You gotta laugh:)
