Are you looking at the waves? Have the challenges or failures of life got you down in the dumps? Where is God in all of this? That’s what we’ll be looking out of this episode of Married By Design.
This week we’re going to see how Elijah reconnected with his God. Certainly because he was in fear and turmoil, there was some spiritual distance from his Lord. He took his eyes off his Master and put them on the woman Jezebel that had threatened him. That sent him into a tailspin. And part of the solution now for Elijah getting out of that depression was to seek God. Looking verse eight: “he arose and ate and drank, and went in the strength of that food 40 days and 40 nights to Horeb the mount of God.”
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to discuss a couple of the importance of making the journey to Horeb. As you seek God and abide with Him, he will begin to change your attitudes and your perspective. It is part of the process of managing that depression and getting to a better place. If you are counseling somebody who is struggling with depression, maybe it would be encouraging them to make that trip or even walking with them through a process of reading the Word together and praying together to get them started.
