Proverbs 12:25

25Anxiety in the heart of man causes depression,
But a good word makes it glad.
-Proverbs 12:25


Anxiety and depression run rampant in our world today. They play off of each other and stir one another up. One of the many reasons I believe it is running as rampant as it is has to do with the isolation we live in from one another. It is hard to be pulled out of a pit if there is no one around to help pull us out. Throughout Scripture, encouragement and exhortation are promoted for believers. We should be lifting each other up and edifying one another. However, if our lives are spent in isolation of one another, how can we encourage or be lifted up? Let us cling to the body of Christ. Be unified together and edify one another. Anxiety and depression do not have to be the end all be all. We can have joy together.
