A gospel singer suffering from depression??
That's so ironical. There's no depression when we sing to God but peace, blessings and joy.

Anyways, we all know individually where the shoe pinches us.
You Christians are some of the most wicked individuals out there. Your utterances violate even the God you claim to serve. In your mind, when Elijah became so depressed that he ran to hide, he was no longer of God, abi? And when Elisha died of illness, that could not have been of God either? Congratulations, you lot have become better than even God's very own. undecided

Oh.. I learnt she was depressed and it could be a possible suicide. Some people now say depression is an ailment and can be treated with medications. I don't agree.
Depression comes and stays from the wrong thoughts.
This is not entirely true. There is a depression that will come from your bones that the more you fight it , the more it deepens. Medication can help it for a time but that is it, for a time. That kind of depression, only God Himself can lift off of you. undecided

Yes, I do suspect suicide in this case too, but if you have ever found yourself in the clutches of depression, you would never lift your heart to cast blame on those who choose to end it. lipsrsealed

That's the challenge, being a gospel singer of preacher doesn't make one immune but doing today he word is the key. Choose to be happy. Focus on the light and let shadows fall behind.
That motivational speech nonsense does not solve depression. Ask your many other pastors out there who after many years of preaching that gobbledegook took their own lives. lipsrsealed

Next time before you comment, read carefully... and don't just blurt out anything that comes to your mind.

There's a big difference between being depressed and suffering from depression.

Of course all Christians get depressed once in a while, but suffering from depression means chronic depression like a very bad sickness.

A Christian that spends much time in God's presence cannot suffer from chronic depression, it's impossible. Unless he or she decides to backside away from God.

So there's a difference between being depressed now and suffering from depression and Elijah did not suffer depression but only felt depressed, abi? . OK naw. Jeremiah nko who suffered from Depression that it oozes out of his declarations, are you Christians better than he was? You religious lot are definitely better than Elisha, right? lipsrsealed


I keep forgetting that the Christian God is a different deity entirely from the God of Israel whose prophets experienced a lot of suffering.. Even Jesus Christ promised His followers suffering and tribulations but the Christian God is on another level entirely. lipsrsealed

Depressive disorder (also known as depression) is a common mental disorder. It involves a depressed mood or loss of pleasure or interest in activities for LONG periods of time. This type of Depression is different from regular mood changes and feelings about every day.

Lol .. According to Elijah, the cause of His depression was Jezebel's killing of prophets in the land, a campaign which probably spanned years. It led him into the a state of depression and to believing he was the last one left( he probably wasn't aware of what Obadiah had been doing) in the entire nation of Judah. By the time, the panic had overwhelmed him, Elijah, he saw himself walking many many miles in a bid to run away from the sword coming from him. Reading it, the man seemed like he was in the clutches of the delusion that goes with it. undecided

But here you wish for us to believe it was merely a feeling of depression that Elijah experienced. What about Jeremiah who existed in his state and even poured his depressed heart out in his writings? Of course, no point mentioning Elisha who is reported to have died in his illness, right? . grin

For the first time in a very long time (or from inception), it seems you have a point... Congrats. But the Christian God is the same God of Israel.

However, a true child of God shouldn't suffer from depression because in God's presence is fullness of joy.

Yes, the God of your religion is definitely a different God from the God of Elijah, Elisha, Jeremiah and Jesus Christ. They all suffered affliction even as they walked with Him. Jesus Christ even promised His followers suffering and tribulation to boot. But all that seems unacceptable by the standard of your own religion s deity. Hence, whatever deity you serve, it cannot be the same God of Israel or His Son, Jesus Christ. That is one thing that is for sure in all of this. undecided

See, there's another difference. Salvation, according to Jesus Christ, can be examined by others. He told His followers that by their fruits you shall know those who are of Him from those who are not of Him. His teachings differ from this hidden salvation you religious lot swear by, your personal kind of salvations, that you believe no one outside of your person is able to gauge. Must like the Muslims, you religious lot do not in fact have much in common with Jesus Christ and the God of Israel. undecided

They told this one just be insulting Obi on every thread and the robot has been doing so.

Lolllz.

No brains whatsoever.

A gospel singer does on faraway US and the daft brings on Peter Obi.

I suspect they may not count this post in his daily quota as it's so distasteful even for them

Depression comes and stays from the wrong thoughts.

She was s*xually abused as a child And lost her best friend to cancer. she tried her best to overcome it but It seems it was too much for her to bear.

Depression is a complex condition; some people need medications and others need intense therapies. While other still need a shift in perspective and new strategies on how to perceive challenges and setbacks.

RIP dear, you really tried. 💔 🙏🏾 💐

For you can do nothing for or against the Truth and this is the Truth of the matter. It's not motivation. Gratitude remains the extinguisher of depression.

You don't get to manufacture Truth as you feel like it. It either exists outside of your mind or it is balderdash! Let's get that straight! undecided

There is no evidence out that that what you refer to as gratitude impacts depression, either the emotion or the disease. If you at least understood the individual symptoms of the illness, you would realize for your self why it can't be as you claim. undecided

I do not blame those who choose to end it. I am indifferent towards them even though I don't agree with any excuse given.
God has come to dwell in man and become one with man.. so the answer to any form of depression is in man. Do the opposite - focus on the light (gratitude). Count it all Joy when faced with diverse trials. Refuse to focus on the darkness of depression.

I agree with Andrew Tate and insist that depression isn't an ailment, depression can try me but can't hold me as I can not be depressed.

The Christian radio outlet K-LOVE is reporting that Mandisa has passed away. She was 47.

The cause of death is not yet known, and details are sparse, but she reportedly died at her home in Nashville.

"Mandisa loved Jesus, and she used her unusually extensive platform to talk about Him at every turn. Her kindness was epic, her smile electric, her voice massive, but it was no match for the size of her heart," says David Pierce, K-LOVE Chief Media Officer.

Mandisa was a Grammy-winning artist, known for her uplifting hits like "Good Morning" and "Overcomer." Throughout her career, she collaborated with top Christian performers like TobyMac, Matthew West, Michael W. Smith, Kirk Franklin, and Jordan Feliz.

She was also an author, telling her testimony in her book, Out of the Dark: My Journey Through The Shadows To Find God's Joy, about her lifelong struggles with depression and trusting in God for healing. She had also been very open in interviews with CBN and other Christian outlets like K-LOVE.
