What if, when you’re feeling vulnerable and alone and scared, you could push one button and the people who care about you most instantly came to help? That’s the idea behind ‘notOK’, an app developed by the Lucas siblings, Hannah, 16, and Charlie, 13, of Cumming, Georgia. Hannah still battles the depression but has chosen to fight back.
Confession for Putting Depression in Its Place
From KCM
I put on a garment of praise instead of a heavy, burdened, and
failing spirit of depression so that I may be called an oak of
righteousness! I am determined to constantly and at all times offer up a
sacrifice of praise, which is the fruit of lips that thankfully
acknowledge and confess and glorify His Name. I know it’s a sacrifice
because I may not feel like it, but I focus on what I can be thankful
for and not the things that bring me down. Depression has no place in me
and I refuse to accept it.
I have decided to forget my
complaints, to put away my sad face and to be cheerful. I refuse
depression, which weighs me down. Instead, I encourage myself in the
Lord and cheer myself up. I fix my mind on those things that are true,
honest, just, pure, lovely, of good report, virtuous and deserving of
praise. God’s peace guards my heart and mind as I live in Christ Jesus.
