Nancy Arant Williams
For those fighting depression, as I have, it helps to look up, and steep yourself in the scripture, claiming your identity in Christ.
Begin to praise God. He says He INHABITS the praises of His people. As your mind is renewed, the scripture says the enemy will flee, and depression will be shattered.
If you are not yet a child of God, but would like to be, I would love to introduce you to Him. Please click on HOW TO BECOME A CHILD OF GOD.
This list is just the beginning. As you seek God’s promises, He will show Himself to you. You are His BELOVED. E-mail me at nancyarantwilliams@windstream.net
