Array ( [sid] => 35322 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => ON DEPRESSION [time] => 2004-02-17 14:08:06 [hometext] => There's too much of it. [bodytext] => Be depressed? Who - Me?
Too much to see,
too much to do,
before I'm through.

God's world's so bright,
Even shines at night.
I feel joy too,
when I see you.

I also love seeing,
happy children playing.
Isn't all nature too,
wonderful thru and thru.

Even working is fun,
when the jobs nicely done.
We're blessed, understand,
living in this land.

I'm even happy knowing,
Fiery trials inhance growing.
Elated also that I am,
held safely in God's hand.

Pleasure results, you know,
from helping others,--- so,
depression can't hinder me,
there's too much to see.

There's too much to do,
why let it hinder you?
Because, with Christ finally,
We'll live in ecstasy.

Rom.8:28 " and we know that all things work
together for good to them that love God...."
