Day 22: Love Your Struggling Neighbor



This post is part of a 31-day series.



"Is anyone among you suffering?  Then he must pray."

James 5:13


God may lead you into depression to minister to others who experience it.




Maybe you suffer endlessly because God is calling you to a long-term ministry of prayer.   Nothing pushes our fickle hearts to prayer like suffering.


Do not neglect this high calling.  Don't wish it away or waste it by wondering why you suffer in a way that others don't.  Don't feel put upon or think God doesn't like you.


He invites you--you, specifically, the one who suffers--to come into His very throne room and make intercession.  Thank Him for such an honorable calling.
