Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart: wait, I say, on the Lord. 9Ps.27:13,14).__-------------------------------------------------------------------------_ One of the ways the we can wholesomely deal with the various traumas that we experience in life (including depression) is to actively expect that God will do for us that which He has said He will do.
