Healing Minds and Emotions

In Psalm 40:1-3, King David spoke about being lifted by God from a terrible and desolate pit. Some people with mental illness use this phrase to describe their symptoms. There is a difference between situational sadness and mental health conditions that hinder our ability to recover on our own. When someone is in a desolate pit, their mind struggles to find a solution to the challenging circumstances. Fortunately, Jesus came to heal our mental and emotional wounds.
