Lesson 25: Standing and Resting in Righteousness

Testimony

Deauna writes: "I didn't acknowledge how I really felt for quite some time. So once I acknowledged that I was living in what felt like a fog of uncertainty.It was comfortable for me to isolate and just exist. I didn't have joy or peace in my life, but I pretended to.
After confiding in my counselor, she recommended the depression course at Setting Captives Free. Wow, after the first week, I noticed a shift in my feeling. My feelings of despair were being replaced with hope and joy.This course kept leading me to the cross and it was there that Jesus took my suffering so that I could be free. My mentor was extremely helpful in this regard as well. I'm grateful for her prayers, encouragement and love that was deeply appreciated.
My eyes were open to how much Jesus truly loves me. He paid the price for my sins and despair, so I wouldn't have to live in despair. My life has been renewed and I have hope, joy and peace today because of what Jesus did on the cross."
