Se a prova do crime foi obtida por meio de atitude violenta do policial durante o flagrante, e se o testemunho do agente que praticou as agressões é o único meio de prova, a condenação do réu torna-se inviável. Com esse entendimento, a 6ª Turma do Superior Tribunal de Justiça concedeu a ordem em Habeas Corpus para absolver um homem condenado pelo crime de porte de arma de fogo de uso permitido. O julgamento, ocorreu dia (13/9), teve votação unânime. 📌 Leia o conteúdo completo no blog do site monteiroadvogadosassociados.com, pelo link na Bio, nos Stories, pelo App ‘Wix’. #advocacia #advogados #estudantededireito #advocaciaprevidenciaria #advocaciacriminal #drmonte
Com a recente publicação da Portaria Conjunta MTP/INSS n. 7/2022, passou a ser possível solicitar a perícia documental nos pedidos de auxílio por incapacidade temporária (antigo auxílio-doença). Além disso, não deixa de ser uma forma de tentar diminuir o tempo de espera para a concessão dos benefícios, visto que não é novidade que o quadro de servidores está defasado e o número de pedidos aumenta cada vez mais, né? 📌 Leia o conteúdo completo no blog do site monteiroadvogadosassociados.com, pelo link na Bio, nos Stories, pelo App ‘Wix’. #advocacia #advogados #estudantededireito #advocaciaprevidenciaria #advocaciacriminal #drmonte

You’ve gone through a tragedy. But it very well may not have been God‘s will for that to have happened to you. God gives us all free will, people do their own thing, and therefore bad things happen. However, if you turn to God, look to Him, and submit to Him, something good will come out of it. God is the master at turning lemons into lemonade. He is the Master at turning what the Devil intended for evil into something good and Holy. “You intended to harm me, but God intended it all for good.” Genesis 50:20 NLT Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

I work primarily in nursing homes. I work with people who are in their right minds but who have gone through severe traumas and losses. When they are able to learn how to completely trust and love God and stay positive in the mist of their terrible storms it really ministers and motivates me. Some of these people have lost their spouse that they loved, their house, their car, their pets, their children, and their ability to be able to get to the bathroom. They feel they have no sense of purpose or control over their life. They now live in a small room that they share with a noisy stranger. And life like this can go on sometimes for many years. So many people I know who are not in nursing homes, including myself, feel so sorry for ourselves, even though our problems are not half of what theirs are. I don’t want to minimize anybody’s problems, but yet can we learn from people who lost everything and yet you’re still able to smile? “Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.

The Pity party is over! When tragedy strikes, it is so easy to get discouraged and want to give up. I tell my clients all the time that it is OK to have a pity party, to whine and cry and feel sorry for yourself. However, you should do so for only so long. You have to pick yourself up, dust yourself off and accept what you cannot change. You have to move forward and make the best out of a bad situation. The plain cold fact is it doesn’t do any good to stay depressed. I know this is easier said than done sometimes. But logically you know it is true. You have to lean on God, trust in God, and submit to God. Appreciate all the good in your life and have hope for the wonderful things that God has promised us in the next life. “But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead,” Philippians 3:13 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

God is in control. Even if things are not going as we want, even if things are falling apart, God is orchestrating His plan. We just have to trust Him. And we have to submit to Him, especially when things are not going as we wanted them too. We have to surrender to His will. God knows best. Trust Him. You then have perfect hope.

God, I am so desperate for your help. I cannot make it on my own. I need your supernatural blessings and guidance. Please, oh Lord, love me and forgive me. I’m not worthy of your help, but I ask anyway. Forgive me for any sense of demandingness or entitlement in my heart. I know you’ve got my back, God and you want what’s best for me, and in the end, everything that is happening to me you are using for your glory and for my betterment. Just please give me the strength to endure all this, and please keep any more harm from me and my family. I will always trust and love you Lord Jesus, even if I’m frustrated that things don’t go as well as I hoped they would, even if disasters keep striking. “I call on you, my God, for you will answer me; turn your ear to me and hear my prayer.” Psalms 17:6 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

Monday morning sunrise pick. Sunrises represent hope. With Jesus, we have a guaranteed hope of better times in the future. In order to have hope, we first have to have faith. Do you really believe that this Jesus guy really died for you and was resurrected, and is still around today? I think God the father, and Jesus have proven themselves To be trustworthy and to love us with an amazing love. Therefore, we have every good logical reason to believe that Jesus will continue to be there for us in every problem of today and a guaranteed bright future with no more tears. “Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.” Hebrews 11:1 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

Ever feel like it’s just one thing after another after another? It gets easy to get discouraged. You start to think “Why even try, it’s not gonna make any difference anyway. Things are still going to turn out bad.” The devil loves this!! He wins if we give up trying. I admit that I feel like this lately. After a few more disasters. I do wonder why God has allowed more pain to come into my life and more stress when I had strong faith that He would have this turn out better. But I always know the truth, that I do not understand so much about my life. I trust in God even if I don’t know understand. I will not leave him even if I do not understand. I will keep fighting for Him. “The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.

Will you still trust and praise God and disaster strikes? It’s easy to praise God after miracle, after we’ve been blessed, in the middle of good times. Call but can you praise God when things go wrong. Can you praise God when on the surface it seems like He let you down and allowed bad things to happen? You still have to trust that God has bigger, more important things in mind for you then just what we see. We also have to learn the hard fact that this world is not about our happiness. God is not there just to serve us. He is primarily there to be worshiped and adored for who He is, regardless of what is going on in our life. He created all things. He is all powerful. And we trust that He is all loving, even if we don’t understand. He has already proven his love for us, and worthiness of praise, by dying on the cross for us. “I will bless the LORD at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth.” Psalms 34:1 NKJV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

Monday morning sunrise pic. Sunrise symbolizes hope. A new beginning. Psychologically, our emotional state gets much worse in our mind when we turn something that is bad and turn it into something that is devastating, or catastrophic. But when you have Jesus on your side, nothing is ever truly devastating. In the big scheme of life, your eternal life, the worst problem you can have will still seem like only a small problem and you will see how wonderful everything is. I don’t want to minimize your problems of today. Life can be truly very difficult. However, it is still a solid core truth, regardless of your feelings, that Christ has given us power, a helping hand, and comfort during this life and a promise of a perfect life that will go on forever, after this. “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you.” Deuteronomy 31:6 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

Appreciate of the Cross. I do not take for granted how freaking much God loves you! When we are hurting, when we are down we are overwhelmed, remember what God did for you. Because of the Cross we have a powerful friend, Father, protector. We have a hope in the future! Worship Sunday. One of my fundamental beliefs is that if you want good mental health you need to focus on praising God regardless of your situation. “This is how God showed his love among us: He sent His one and only Son into the world that we might live through Him.” 1 John 4:9 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

Just cry out to God with your spirit. Don’t even use words. When you’re feeling overwhelmed and hurting so badly, you desperately want God’s help. But our simple English words, especially when one is very upset, do not really cut it with what you’re trying to convey. Our heart, our spirit, has so much more to say when we are desperate. Just let your spirit talk to Him. Let Him hear all that is in your heart and know that The Holy Spirit can understand it.. Another benefit of praying in the spirit is that you can more easily hear what God is trying to tell you. You can more easily be quiet and listen, instead of just talk. When you’re praying in the spirit, your focus should be more on being in the will of God and understanding your situation as He wants you to understand it. “And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.” Ephesians 6:18 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself? Can’t go on much further?

Imagine your whole life as a book. The problems you’re going through now are just one chapter of the book of your life. But I have seen the last chapter of your story. The good guys win!

What are you doing to try to help yourself? Are you desperate for help? Are you feeling anxious, overwhelmed, hopeless? Are you going to your God for help each and every day? Are you going not just to God in prayer, but are you going to the answer book, his word, the Bible? We have a resource available to us that has the wisdom to be able to cope with life‘s problems, but do we use it? Unfortunately, the vast majority of Christians do not read the Bible every day and many never read it except for individual verses found in devotionals, such as this one? Just start by reading one of the Gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, or one of the letters that Paul wrote, that are in the rest of the New Testament. Certainly look at different Psalms. But just pick it up and start reading it for yourself, a little bit every day and try to listen to what God might be trying to say to you about how to get through your problems. “Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.” Joshua 1:8 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself? Can’t go on much further? You want to use your faith in God but it doesn’t seem like enough?

Beware of your emotional self! When we are overly emotional, depressed, anxious, angry - our hearts start telling us things are worse than they really are. They may indeed be bad but are they as tragic as your heart is making you think they are? Or, you might be sad about one thing, and then your heart starts looking for everything else sad in your life. But what your heart is leading your mind to think is not the truth, or at least not the whole truth. When you’re in Christ you have to keep in mind the unchangeable truth of God, His love for you, and the truth of His Word. Stay appreciative of all that is good and stay hopeful of the good things coming to you in the future. “The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure.

Worship Sunday. One of my fundamental beliefs is that if you want good mental health you need to focus on praising God regardless of your situation. Are you feeling overwhelmed with anxiety? Worried about what might could happen? Today, I’m personally feeling overwhelmed with anxieties today. Several big potential problems are coming up and it seems too much to handle. But I know in my head that God is in control. I throw myself off a cliff, trusting that He’s going to catch me. I trust that He will go and fight my battles for me, if I just let Him. “Yours, Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the majesty and the splendor, for everything in heaven and earth is yours. Yours, Lord, is the kingdom; you are exalted as head over all.” 1 Chronicles 29:11 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself? Can’t go on much further?

Psychiatric medications should never be used without counseling of some kind. It shocks me how many American Christian adults are getting antidepressants, anti-anxiety medications, or sleep medications without ever attempting to change the way they think about their life. Don’t get me wrong, there is a place for medications for some people. But even if you have a very distinct physiological problem, if it affects your emotions or mood, you can use your mind and your attitude to cope with your problems better. Medications only are only a Band-Aid to the problem and not looking at the source of the problem. So many people are depressed or anxious, not because their physiology is wrong, but because they have not really learned to truly deal with the thoughts that are causing the depression. Of course as a Christian psychologist, I believe that learning how to identify your thoughts and then learn to more deeply trust in God is the solution to so many of our problems. Life is indeed truly hard and I don’t wanna make the process sound easy, but there are ways to cope with every problem. Call me, or someone, if you are on psychiatric medications and not trying to learn how to cope with it without the medicines. There are solutions no matter how bad your problem is. I can help you look to God for your answers, no matter how bad your physiology is or how bad your storm of life is. “‘Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.’” Jeremiah 33:3 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

Depression equals hopelessness. Jesus equals hope. I always talk about how our thoughts lead to our emotions. If we are feeling depressed it must be because we are having thoughts that things are not what we want them to be and they’re not likely to get better. If you can get your mind to see that there is hope, that there is a solution, a knight in shining armor will come and rescue you, and that should help alleviate the depression. Jesus has not forgotten you nor abandoned you. He promised he will be there with you through the fire and will rescue you out of the fire. Hold onto this hope. “Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.” Romans 12:12 Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself? Can’t go on much further?

(Please read. This does help with depression) September 11. We will not forget. God bless the USA. What happened that day was evil. It was the biggest and most obvious battle in a bigger spiritual battle. But each one of us is in our own battle spiritually. We live in a sinful fallen world, and our enemy wants to bring us down and keep us from God and the peace of God. Mental health is a big part of this battle. The devil loves to bring us down, help us to feel sorry for ourselves, so that we cannot see God, and not help others. Read all of Ephesians 6. Understand the full armor of God. Constantly stay in close contact with God and his angels keep in mind the truth that God is more powerful and has overcome. Do not give in to depression or the devil. “Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” Ephesians 6:11-12 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

At your wits end? Give up! But we are taught not to give up. I would never want you to give up on life! However, we do need to give up trying to get through this life on our own. We need to even give up trying to get through the problems of this life on our own, and even with God just helping us. We need to let God take over everything for us and fight the battles for us. We need to learn to surrender to God and learn to love and trust Him even if things don’t go well, even if we do not get our way. You might just find yourself getting through problems better, much better. “Submit to God and be at peace with him; in this way prosperity will come to you.” Job 22:21 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

My prayer for you guys today. “I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people,” Ephesians 1:18 NIV I want you to know the hope that Jesus has given us! And I love that phrase about the eyes of your heart opening. Don’t look at your life like the world teaches us to. See things from a bigger perspective. Our problem are still bad and they still hurt - but they aren’t devastating or tragic. Tragic would be for the pain to last forever. Monday sunrise picture. Sunrises symbolize hope. Never forget the hope we have in Christ. Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself? Can’t go on much further? You want to use your faith in God but it doesn’t seem like enough?

Even when you’ve been bad, or life has been bad to you, God is good - always. Do not doubt that God is still there, watching, caring. He is all loving, all knowing, all powerful. He is worthy of praise and of our trust. Take time to thank Praise Him, regardless of your situation. Worship Sunday. One of my fundamental beliefs is that if you want good mental health you need to focus on praising God regardless of your situation. “The Lord is good to all; he has compassion on all he has made.” Psalm 145:9 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

Anxious? Freaking Out About Life? Breathe! I’m a big believer in manually controlling our breathing-deep slow breaths. This gets the rational and emotional parts of your brain more oxygen, allowing you to keep your cool and remember what’s more important and how to get through your problems. Then, put your mind on God. Trust in Him, fully, deeply, with everything in your life! Submit to Him. If He wants you to go through a storm, then learn what He wants you to learn from it, grow. Of course, learning to trust and submit are really the primary lessons He wants you to learn from suffering. And then you’ll find true peace. “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” Proverbs 3:5-6 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

God is your best friend! Not just your Lord and Savior. He wants to be with you, hang out with you, help you. And...He is a powerful friend; others should not mess with you! Mean people, life’s problems, the demons -all should watch out! One of my favorite stories of a vision of Heaven is of a 7 year old boy who had a water fight with Jesus. He said that in that moment, Jesus became my best friend. What a cool experience! “And the scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness,” and he was called God’s friend.” James 2:23 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

Depressed? Try this strategy. Take your focus off of yourself and put it onto others. You may have a right and it may be very normal for someone in your situation to feel sad and feel sorry for yourself. But the problem is that when we are depressed, we become more self-centered which just leads to further depression. Ironically, taking your mind off of yourself and on to others helps yourself feel better. I call this the irony of happiness. Those who only seek their own happiness never find it, and those who focus on others happiness become more happy. But isn’t this the nature of love? Isn’t this the example in the teaching set out by Jesus? Remember that Jesus is also called a counselor. “And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.” Hebrews 13:16 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

Are you tired of fighting? I know that I am so very tired. This life seems like one problem after another sometimes. I get overwhelmed with feelings of fear sometimes of what else may happen bad. I know God is with me and he will work everything out in the end but for today and tomorrow it’s hard and uncertain. But I have to keep going and keep my eyes on God. Each day does not have to be a struggle. Not if I realize that God is with me and I stay with Him. I need to let God fight my battles. Then, with God fighting, why would I be tired? “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you.” Deuteronomy 31:6 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

Do you have hope in Christ? Does this bring you contentment in the midst of your storms of life? Hope does not just mean a wish. It means a promise. Tuesday morning sunrise pick. Sunrises symbolize hope. (Normally Monday morning but with the holiday) God gave us promises. We can hang our hats on these. This is why we can have hope and smile. We tend to use the word hope as I wish. As in, “I hope there’s something good for dinner tonight. I hope I win the lottery.“ We are not just wishing that God will love us and take care of us and take us to heaven. We have a guaranteed promise. We absolutely know for certain that God is in control and he will make all things right if we just let Him. “Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.” Hebrews 11:1 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

We who love Jesus will be wearing white very soon! Even though they say don’t wear white after Labor Day. (Whoever “They” are??) Don’t forget your this when you are down and feeling like wearing black all the time. We do not deserve it and we cannot earn it, but only because we decided to give ourselves up to God and submit our lives to Him, will we get these robes. All of our failures and shame, all of our damaged parts, will be remembered no more! We will be made pure and will go before God’s throne boldly. All because Jesus’ blood cleanses us! “After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands.” Revelation 7:9 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself? Can’t go on much further?

Do you really see the how amazing the cross was? Worship Sunday. One of my fundamental beliefs is that if you want good mental health you need to focus on praising God regardless of your situation. God sent Jesus to die on the cross. Think about it. We hear this so much we stop seeing the magnitude of it, the audacity of it all! God, the big guy, loves me, little ol’ me, enough to send His only son to die a horrific death to save me, when I don’t at all deserve it! Wow! I mean, wow! And I complain about petty things in this life and feel unloved sometimes. Ha! “For the joy set before Him He endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.” Hebrews 12:2 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

Our New Family member! Hoss. A 3 year old rescued Great Pyrenees!! He’s huge, but sooo loveable and good! Dogs give love just about more than any other creature on the planet.

Wouldn’t this be a great world if we all could love like that? ““A new command I give you: Love one another.

God wants you to be happy. But not just for today. You learning to trust in God and thus submit to Him is more important for your long term happiness than God just fixing your problem now without you learning to trust Him. And He is not just a Gennie in the sky who is only here to grant you your wishes. He knows what is best for you.

Why? Why are we here? What is the meaning of life? Why do bad things happen? These are big questions. ‘Why’ is in fact THE question. To put it simply, the number one reason God created us Is to worship Him. He created us for fellowship, out of love, for His glory. He made us. He knows us better than anything. He knows what is best for us. He wants us to freely choose to love Him back. When we realize our proper place in this universe, which is at His feet worshiping Him, then we are in our right place and we feel complete and whole. If we look to anything else in this life for meaning, we come up empty. The pleasures of this life, even good things such as family, friends, even the simple freedom of good health, should never be our source of happiness. The point of this life, which sometimes takes losing everything to realize, is to learn to submit to God, our maker. When you really see the big picture, and you find the place for which you were made and you just stop and worship God, then you find peace, even in the midst of life‘s storms. “Everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made.” Isaiah 43:7 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

You want love, but are youwilling to pay the price? Love is not a desire for somebody, like we tend to use the word. Love is a genuine concern for the happiness of somebody else more so than our own happiness. If you want love from your spouse, you first need to be concerned with their happiness. You have to actively, purposely do things to try to make their life better every day and throughout the day. When people first start dating, they’re always trying to put their best foot forward and make the other person happy. That should never stop being like that. But we get selfish and lazy and the love dies off. And then we feel sad and complain that there’s no love in our marriage. God gave us a great example of love. Jesus washed our feet, He came to earth for us. He died for us. What greater love is there? Can’t we likewise give love to each other? “Love is ... not self-seeking” I Corinthians 3:5 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself? Can’t go on much further?

Are you grieving even though you don’t realize it?? Grief is not just a time when a loved one dies. Grief is the time to recover whenever you have had any significant loss. A divorce, or break up, loss of a job, a move from my home, loss of a friendship, loss of a dream. All these things and more could be a loss in your life and result in us grieving. We all see it as normal to be depressed when grieving the loss of a loved one. But we also need to see that it is normal to be sad with any of these other losses. You do not want to be sad forever and want to work towards acceptance and moving on, but for the time being, it’s OK to cry and have a pity party for just a little bit. “He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” Revelation 21:4 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself? Can’t go on much further?

Where ship Sunday. One of my fundamental beliefs is that if you want good mental health you need to focus on praising God regardless of your situation. No matter what storm of life you are in, God is still God. He is all powerful, all knowing, all loving! He sent His son to live the perfect life and then sacrificed Himself for us to save us. Oh yea. He also came back to life. No small deed. God deserves for us to just look at Him and tell Him how awesome He is!! It’s not about you, it’s about Him. He is God. You are not. But He knows how to take care of you best! I think He’s proven it. So submit to Him and feel better! “I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised.” Psalms 18:3 NKJV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself? Can’t go on much further?

Let TRUTH be in charge of your mental health, not negative emotions. Emotions can be great. They make us human. They motivate us. They help us to live life. But too many times our emotions become too dramatic and change how we think, making us think things are hopeless and helpless. When we are depressed, our emotions brains tell us things are worse than they really are. We do not feel that anyone loves us, or that God is even there. However, the truth is, we are loved, there is Hope, God is here! These things do not vary based upon our life circumstances or how we are feeling at the time. So tell yourself the truth. Do not trust you mind when overly emotional! “For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.” Proverbs 23:7 NKJV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself? Can’t go on much further?

I am a Christian counselor, a Christian psychologist. This means that I believe that the best way to help somebody with their mental health issues is by developing their faith. The Bible is all about God‘s love and redemption of us. It has all sorts of wisdom in it. It does not cover all things mental health, additional knowledge of psychology and techniques to help people are needed. Similarly, the Bible does not teach everything a medical doctor needs to treat his patients. However psychology can also be seen as the study of people. Who knows people better than our maker? Thus, the Bible is the primary textbook on psychology. I have found that of all the strategies to help someone fight depression, anxiety, anger issues, the best is to help them understand the wisdom of the Bible, and learning to submit to God more deeply. If you truly learn to love the Lord and submit to Him, you cannot help but feel better about your life and cope better. “He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.” Isaiah 40:29 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

Some of us may actually want to be depressed. Do you? I know from my own experience. May sound silly at first but trust me any of us can be depressed because you want something out of it. Years ago I was going through a difficult time in my life and was very depressed. I wanted my first wife to love me back and couldn’t figure out how to get her to do so. I was getting more down. One day I realized I was wanting her to see that I was depressed so that maybe she would look at things differently and try to give me love. I eventually realized it wasn’t going to work and I was only making myself miserable in the process. I tried to accept what I couldn’t change, and change what I could, and to make the most of what I had, especially my daughter. Do not let others, even spouses or children, be the main source of your happiness. God alone is your joy and your strength. He will never fail you. But He is worthy of it. “My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.” Psalm 121:2 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself? Can’t go on much further?

Hang on! Heaven is coming, and it’s going to be great! Many people, including a lot of Christians, believe that Heaven is just sitting on clouds playing a harp and singing all day long. Heaven is so much more than this! We will have real trees, flowers rivers, beautiful clean cities. We’ll have interesting, meaningful jobs. We’ll have fellowship with our loved ones, and most importantly we will be able to hang out with and worship God in person. We will have peace of mind, security, good health, and love. We will still be ourselves with our own personalities, creative and intelligent. And this is just the start. There are going to be amazing wonderful things that we can’t even begin to imagine, that will totally exceed our expectations. And this is all a free gift from the great amazing love and grace of God, through the death and resurrection of His son Jesus. Could I give a better reason to have hope, and and to have strength to get through today’s storms of life? “However, as it is written: “What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived” — the things God has prepared for those who love Him—” 1 Corinthians 2:9 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

“Oh God, please help me!“ It is Okay to beg for God’s help. It is good and Biblical to do so. God wants to help us. But more importantly, God wants us to be with Him. He loves the position we are in, with us at His feet prostrate before Him. We are acknowledging that He is powerful and we are not. But can you have this position in every day of your life? In good times and in bad? For this is why we were made, to sit at His feet. He is amazing and wonderful and perfect and Holy and powerful and all loving. We are the created, not the Creator. We are not capable of doing anything without Him. Do you want God to help you in your time of need? Then go to Him humbly when things are good. “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” Philippians 4:6 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

Monday morning sunrise pic. Sunrises are symbolic of hope. A fresh start. “Therefore, since we have such a hope, we are very bold.” 2 Corinthians 3:12 NIV Are you feeling run down because of life? Down and depressed? Crippled with fear and anxiety? NO!! WE ARE TO BE BOLD. It is hope, hope in Christ and His promises, that give us this boldness. We are loved. We are forgiven. We have a Helper to give us strength and help us with our problems today. And we have a guaranteed great future in Heaven! Do you believe this? Do you really??

Life has you stressed? Too much to do? Too many anxieties, frustrations? Need a break? Remove yourself from your problems. Take a few moments alone. Take a deep breath, and pray. But don’t pray for yourself or loved ones. Focus On God. Don’t even focus on the good things He has given you. Just focus on Jesus and how wonderful He is. Acknowledge that He alone is worthy of Glory. Give Him Praise. Ironically you will find yourself with less stress. “Worthy is the Lamb who was slain To receive power and riches and wisdom, And strength and honor and glory and blessing!” Revelation 5:12 NKJV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

It is not just a difficult, sinful world out there, filled with mean selfish people, aging and health problems, and death. There is evil in the world. Real forces out there intent on stopping God and His people. HOWEVER, God Almighty is on our side! He is all powerful and He Loves is dearly. So do not be afraid! Of course, staying as close to God as possible is the key. Do not let fear control you. Let love control you-Gods love. “He who is in us is great than he who is in the world.” (I John 4:4). “Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.” Psalms 23:4 NKJV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

God does not care if you come to Him sad, afraid, or angry. Just as long as you come to Him. *You can come to Him and admit that you’re weaker than you think you should be. *You can come to Him and admit you do not have enough faith as you should. *You can come to Him when you know you should be trusting in him more to take away your fear but you just don’t have it in you. *And you can come to Christ even when you’re mad at him and know you shouldn’t be. But just come. He will meet you where you’re at.... He will love you and help you. “Look to the Lord and his strength; seek His face always.” 1 Chronicles 16:11 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself? Can’t go on much further?

Are you letting God protect you, fight for you? Yesterday, I had to go before authorities and get scrutinized. It went well. Thank the Lord, literally. Sitting in a quiet room for 30 minutes waiting to go in would normally make anyone anxious, and I was no exception. However, I said, “Okay Dr. Miller. Are you going to practice what you preach?” So I took deep breaths, relaxed my muscles, and cleared my mind of anything except God taking care of me. I knew the Holy Spirit and angels were there and protecting me. “The Lord is with me; he is my helper. I look in triumph on my enemies.” Psalm 118:7 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

Are you facing tough scrutiny, a tough challenge before men? I am today. It should be a very nerve-racking day for me today. I admit that I can get overwhelmed with anxiety at times. But yet, I am feeling peace today. I believe God is with me. He is not just with me, He is going ahead of me and fighting my battles for me. I am letting Him. I cannot fight on my own. I have failed too many times fighting on my own. I have to sit back and let God in His great power and mercy fight for me. (Written with tears) I don’t know why He loves me so much. I do not deserve Him to fight for me. But somehow He loves me. All He wants for me to do is to acknowledge Him and His power and my frailty and to humble myself. I have to learn my place, which is the ultimate truth, of where I fit in this world compared to God. I am nothing without Him. I belong humbly at His feet, His servant. “When you are brought before synagogues, rulers and authorities, do not worry about how you will defend yourselves or what you will say, for the Holy Spirit will teach you at that time what you should say.” Luke 12:11-12 NIV And again. Yesterday’s verse: “Do not be afraid of them; the Lord your God Himself will fight for you.” Deuteronomy 3:22 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself? Can’t go on much further?

I get so tired of this life and the battles that are always being fought. Do you? On one hand I feel bad that I lose heart and the strength to fight sometimes. But on the other hand I think this is a good thing. God does not want us to fight our battles alone. He wants us to lean on Him. He does not just want us to look to him for help. He wants us to let Him fight our battles for us. Above all else, God wants us to be in fellowship with Him, subservient to Him and His power. We think we can fight our battles on our own. But one of the chief lessons in life is to learn to rely solely on God, not on our own abilities, not on our charm or intelligence, not on our wealth, but solely on God. Visualize taking a step from your enemy, your battle, and letting our big massive God step forward and fight for you. He is our dad, our protector. He wants to fight for us. He loves us. “Do not be afraid of them; the Lord your God himself will fight for you.”” Deuteronomy 3:22 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself? Can’t go on much further?

Monday morning sunrise pic. Sunrises are symbolic of hope. A fresh start. Are you having trouble finding hope and joy in your life? We should have hope, and we should find joy from this hope, even in the midst of problems today. Because of this hope, it empowers us to be able to be patient in the midst of hard times, and affliction. This is easier said than done. So how do we get there? We get there by being faithful in prayer, by regularly, constantly, talking and listening to God. Are you not feeling that joy and that hope? I have to first ask yourself are you being faithful in prayer. “Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.” Romans 12:12 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

Can you learn the most important lesson, before suffering too much?? I work mostly with old folks and those with severe physical handicaps. It struck me recently that many of these guys learn THE most important lesson: To love God only, and totally rely on Him. Honestly, no other lesson in life really matters. They learn this after losing everything. Think about it. Could you handle losing your house, your car, your pets, your loving spouse, your children, your friends, your freedom of movement, and your independence?? Could you handle not being able to get to the bathroom by yourself? Could you handle moving from a house to sharing a small room with an annoying stranger? These guys have been humbled and dejected. However, many have learned to overcome enormous hardships by learning to give up their will to God. Can you learn this without having to go through full suffering? And if you are suffering already, can you learn this lesson?? “My soul, wait silently for God alone, For my expectation is from Him.” Psalms 62:5 NKJV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

God knows you will go through tough times. He never promises us that we won’t. We live in a sinful world. Between our mess-ups and others’, bad things are bound to happen. God gives us free will, so some will choose to do right, some wrong. However, God did promise to be with us. And if we put our trust in Him, He will protect us in these trials. Do not be afraid to ask God for help and protection. Just submit and trust in Him! “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.” Isaiah 43:2 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself? Can’t go on much further?

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound. But what does the word Grace mean? What does it mean to us in our daily life? What does it mean to us in our eternal future? I hate when Christians use church lingo but don’t actually know what the word means, and certainly don’t ever explain it to others. Grace is an unearned, undeserved gift. God loves you, forgives you, and will take you to Heaven, purely as a free gift, given purely out of love. Many Christians think we have to be more good than bad to get into Heaven. But that’s not in the Bible anywhere. Sure, God hates it when we are bad. But we are all too bad to get in on our own. But He loves us anyway and it is only out of love that we can be saved. All He wants you to do is have faith and believe. He did all the hard work, all for you. Just because He can, just because He love you! “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God”.

Are you weighed down by guilt and shame? There are three ways to handle guilt. Two are bad. 1. Hide from it. Don’t admit you did wrong, even to yourself. 2. Admit it but then wallow in self-pity. 3. Admit it. Confess it. Accept God’s grace. Praise Him. Most people fall in the first two categories when we sin, and we all do not want to face the truth. Or, we go to the opposite extreme and check ourselves out of life because we are not worthy to do anything. The devil wins with either of these two extremes. But the Bible teaches us all about the third option Dash redemption, forgiveness, love in the midst of God’s grace. Admit you are a sinner, not just that you have sinned. But with every bit of failing you have done, give God all the praise and glory for loving you enough to forgive you. If He has forgiven you, then who are you to argue with God Almighty? “You, God, know my folly; my guilt is not hidden from you.” Psalm 69:5 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

Are you grieving? Or are you afraid of dying? Do not think as the world teaches us to think. Death is not the enemy. Death is not this big horrible monster that just comes and devours our loved ones and will one day devour us. Jesus overcame death. You did not say goodbye to your love ones. You only said see you later. Death is not defeat of the body. It is the ultimate healing of the body. What would be truly sad is to never see our loved ones again. But we have hope and promise that we will be with our loved ones again. As long as you have accepted that Jesus died and rose again for your sins and you have asked Him to forgive you then there is no harm in death. I love this verse, as it is almost like trash talking death. He has no power over us. Jesus has defeated him. “Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?” 1 Corinthians 15:55 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself? Can’t go on much further? You want to use your faith in God but it doesn’t seem like enough?

Monday morning Sunrise pic. Sunrises represent Hope. “But God will never forget the needy; the hope of the afflicted will never perish.” Psalm 9:18 NIV When we are down and depressed, it is easy to feel alone and hopeless and helpless. We can even think that God has abandoned us. He may not act when we want Him too, or do what we want Him too. But He has not forgotten us. And He knows what is best for us. Can you trust Him? Trust Him in a deep way that He is involved in your life and wants what is best for you. Maybe He isn’t acting yet because He is wanting to develop a deeper, more subservient attitude in you, a patient, trusting attitude. Am be developing this is more important than directly answering your prayer request. He knows best! Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself? Can’t go on much further?

Worship Sunday. The best mental health practice is to develop your Faith in God more deeply. It is ironic that when we focus on God, and off of ourselves, we start to feel better. Spend some time in prayer and say, “God let’s just focus on you not me and my problems.” Don’t just thank him for what’s good in your life, although this is good. But just praise him for who he is and what all he has done. After all, this is the primary reason that you were created. When you do this you’re in your right place and things get better. “Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.” Colossians 3:2 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

I still wake up with fears sometimes. I’m not proud of it. I know I shouldn’t, but I do. I worry about finances and being able to take care of my family. It is a battle of the mind, I know. So, how to I fight these fears? I do what I tell you guys and my clients... I think through the logical truths. The pillars of my faith. I do not let my emotions get the better of me, at least not for long. I KNOW my God will provide. I KNOW He loves me. I KNOW He has the power to change the situation. I need to keep in mind all that is good in my life and be thankful for it. I need to talk to God personally, friend to friend. I need to Praise Him for who He is, regardless of my situation. I’m still human and frail, but I’m working on it. “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” Philippians 4:6 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself?

I pray for my clients. But what I pray for them to have, more than anything, is peace. Most of my clients have had severe traumas that of happened to them, and with severe medical problems. I do pray for their health and physical pain. I do believe God can perform miracles and heal people. However, I also know that as we get older, physical problems will happen. They are unavoidable. It is part of our curse of Adam. So more importantly, I pray for them to have peace. Behind this thought is the knowledge that true peace will come by accepting what we cannot change, and learning to trust and depend upon God on a deeper level. This is how Christianity and psychology interact. If I can get someone to deepen their faith in God, they will be able to handle things emotionally much better. I pray for my clients and for you guys to learn this lesson. “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” John 16:33 NIV Mcmcmcmcmcm Feeling overwhelmed yourself? Can’t go on much further? You want to use your faith in God but it doesn’t seem like enough?
