There isn't anyone who would not admit that when it comes to our thinking and our emotions, there are moments when we realize they just don’t operate the way they should.

There is depression that doesn’t lift even after medication and therapy; there is anxiwety that can be triggered by the smallest of mishaps; there is a kind of bitterness that grabs hold of our hearts even after choosing to forgive someone for hurting us; there are dark moods that can overtake us even when everything seems to be going well on the outside.

This is becasue we live in a fallen world, where we suffer tramuatic pain and where there is a real Satan out to oppress us. 

Thankfully, there is hope.
