I find reading scripture aloud to be a helpful practice. The psalms particularly.
Thank you. Yes. I whole-heartedly agree. It is because God is with me, ESPECIALLY through the reading of His Word, that I am not overcome by despair. He HAS heard my despairing cry and HAS and WILL CONTINUALLY kept me.
