Life isn't always easy. As a matter of fact, we often face seasons in which great adversity stands before us as believers and even non-believers. At times we may feel overwhelmed to the point of despair or depression. The emotions we feel can be real, and we need not be ashamed of them as Christians. Instead, we must give them a name and give them to God. Let us grow together in the seasons of joy and despair. We turn to Psalm 13 as we consider the reality of discouragement and how we can make sense of our mental and emotional struggles in the midst of our faith.
