This is such a great verse and I truly believe in it..why?? Because it's true. I always come out of my phases of depression and I know that God has been with me the entire time! For me, I must reach for these verses every time I start to go through a depression phase..so I thought today I would do a little research and provide you with some keep verses to reach for.
Just doing a simple search will provide you with comfort that you are not alone! Take heart.
