Depressed, me really, no way

So Wednesday was holloween, a holiday that I have never really calibrated, but that is a whole another blog. So after the fall fest at church that night I came home and just felt blah. There was no reason for it at all, but it was there that feeling of woo is me. As I have said there is no reason for it, I have a great job, great friends, and a great church; God was truly blessed me. The next day at work was about the same. Having had enough I pulled out the Ipod and turned on some worship music then went to biblegateway.com for a quick time in the word. The verse that was on their main page was Ephesians 1:18.

"I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints,"

Well after thanking God for this reminder, that feeling of "depression" was gone. It reminds me of what my favorite writer Paul says in 2 Corinthians 10:5.

"We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ."

If I had aloud myself to continue to think on that "woo is me" feeling it would have gotten worse. Once I focus on God and just rely on him, he was faithful to take care of me. So let me encourage you to always hold every thought captive, and when those odd feelings come on just worship God.
