Is there an answer to my depression?

Is there an answer to my depression?

In our lives we experience many sad events and things that can cause us to suffer from depression.
The hurts of the past or our current circumstances can weigh us down. Is there an answer to our depression? Where is God in all of this? Can Allah lift my depression?
Jesus said: ‘Come to me, all of you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest’.
Long before that , the prophet David wrote ‘Give your burden to the Lord and He will take care of you’.
It seems the secret to being free is found in coming to God through the Messiah, Jesus and asking him to lift off us our burdens and worries. Listen to Jesus’ words in the video clip and then listen to a lady called Nadar. She found that when she gave her past and present burdens to Jesus, he completely transformed her life.

MARK 4:35-41

Read how Jesus calms the storm

MARK 4: 35-41 (NIV)

35 On the evening of that same day Jesus said to his disciples, “Let us go across to the other side of the lake.” 36 So they left the crowd; the disciples got into the boat in which Jesus was already sitting, and they took him with them. Other boats were there too. 37 Suddenly a strong wind blew up, and the waves began to spill over into the boat, so that it was about to fill with water. 38 Jesus was in the back of the boat, sleeping with his head on a pillow. The disciples woke him up and said, “Teacher, don’t you care that we are about to die?”
39 Jesus stood up and commanded the wind, “Be quiet!” and he said to the waves, “Be still!” The wind died down, and there was a great calm. 40 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Why are you frightened? Do you still have no faith?”
41 But they were terribly afraid and began to say to one another, “Who is this man? Even the wind and the waves obey him!”
