A new song….
February 5th, 2010
In the midst of my PPD experience, I was searching through the Bible looking for words of comfort. God led me to this verse……and now He has led you.
Psalm 40:1-3
I waited patiently for the LORD;
he turned to me and heard my cry.
2 He lifted me out of the slimy pit,
out of the mud and mire;
he set my feet on a rock
and gave me a firm place to stand.
3 He put a new song in my mouth,
a hymn of praise to our God.
Many will see and fear
and put their trust in the LORD.
Thank you for this verse – it really resonated with me. I just realized that had postpartum anxiety 2 weeks ago and although I started attending a support group, I wanted some guidance from a Christian perspective. I was feeling very overwhelmed this evening, like these awful feelings will never end and I believe God lead me to your site. I am a Christian, but I am not a member of a church and aside from my parents (who live out of state) I don’t have many Christians in my life. Perhaps this experience is God’s way to bring me closer to Him…? Anyway, thank you for your blog!
