What if hopelessness isn’t just a symptom of depression, but its root? Proverbs 13:12 says, “Hope deferred makes the heart sick.” I lived with that kind of sickness for years—searching, aching, doubting. But Romans 15:13 reminded me that God is not just the giver of hope—He is hope. When we trust Him, He fills us with peace, joy, and the strength to hope again.
