A Prayer against depression
O Christ Jesus,
when all is darkness
and we feel our weakness and helplessness,
give us the sense of Your presence,
Your love, and Your strength.
Help us to have perfect trust
in Your protecting love
and strengthening power,
so that nothing may frighten or worry us,
for, living close to You,
we shall see Your hand,
Your purpose, Your will through all things.
By Saint Ignatius of Loyola

When you are in the midst of depression the only thing to do is to CLING to God's Word for in truth, one has no feeling of the sense of God, only a black pit of despair.
Beware of feelings or lack of them but rather TRUST in God's Word that He will never forsake you and that we can rest in Him and find solace and also NOT to worry....Beautiful prayer Esther thank you for placing it on your blog:).
Peace and love to you:)

It's when we really don't feel God's presence that He is truly present in our lives and helping us.
Thanks for sharing this Marie.
Esther,

Love and blessings to you...
I think you are right Easter.
hugs,
