Depression in the United States is soaring. According to the CDC, “During August 2020–February 2021, the percentage of adults with recent symptoms of an anxiety or a depressive disorder increased from 36.4% to 41.5%. Increases were largest among adults aged 18–29 years and those with less than high school education.”

The Bible clearly defines the cause of all depression and the solution, “Anxiety in the heart of man causes depression, But a good word makes it glad.” Proverbs 12:25

The Word of God tells us to, “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” Phil 4:6-7

When you cast your cares upon the Lord (1 Peter 5:7), you are lifting the burden from your shoulder unto Gods.
