‘Depression’s Mango’ (Yeshuah)

…But in order that sin might be recognized as sin, it produced death in me through what was good, so that through the commandment sin might become utterly sinful. We know that the law is spiritual; but I am unspiritual, sold as a slave to sin.—Romans 7:13,14

Depression's Mango (Yeshuah)

it's words you
don't want to hear
passiveness
anguish
stagnation
wanting to survive
with anger in your heart

the sadness draws you
in
pulling you deep
twisting knots
avoiding good
for the sadness
begins to feel good
it becomes familiar

let Me† take you
on a journey
walk with Me†
I†, Yeshuah†
can help you see through
this dark void

there's light
through Me†
I† can help you
find it
but you've got to be
willing

if not
the suffering continues
you begin to use means
any means
to make you feel good

it's an illusion
it is not truth

use Me† instead
to give you strength

the strength comes
slowly
but it comes

it wages up
boundaries
small little walls
protection
where…before
none was found

it's preciseness
giving what you need
to see pass the darkness
giving you a strength
to stand alone
in all the confusion
hate and anger
jealousy and envy
that surrounds you

in this time
your strength builds
learning
the pain has given you
lessons to teach

the sadness turns
to wisdom
little by little
you rise
from way down deep

a careful way
for you
is being paved

it is your choice
once you call upon Me†
to take the path
being laid out to you

I† will offer a cup
to you
it is a choice
to drink from the cup

don't let man fool you

there are many cups
being offered

how can you tell
from which cup to drink?

is it the one in force?

no, it is the one felt
deep in your heart
one of sorrow
the one to humble
the one which brings upon you
questions
questioning your very self

this cup I† offer
is divine in nature
it becomes in you
the seeker of truth
your truth
that which made you
into who you are becoming

it is a solo journey
one very much needed
tears of anguish will fall
but so will anger and hate
jealousy and envy
even pride
they all fall to the ground
down the sides
of your face
they begin to fall away
as sin begins to fade

until you emerge
washed clean
by the tears shed
tears of My† hand

then you have defeated
sin
it falls beneath your feet
no more
does sin live inside you

I† can help you do this
I† am the strength
you need
for sin to be defeated

from this fear
of diving into this sadness
to not be afraid
of what awaits you
of not being afraid
to let tears fall
strength shows its wonderful
face

a new self emerges
as sadness dissipates
and your rebirth
given to the Spirit†
and the Spirit† returns
to you
truth

it isn't easy
but it isn't hard either

you must overcome pride
and face self
your God†-self
without interference
of the sinful nature

be well in your journey
many are too afraid
to take this journey
they fear the pain
needed
to truly let in the light

Me†!
