1 Peter 5:7
Casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.

Depression can often develop out of guilt, disappointment, anxiety, bereavement or low self-esteem. Everyone experiences emotions like these from time to time, but it’s when these emotions become malignant that depression sets into the soul. Often, a doctor will prescribe drugs to deal with depression, but most doctors are now suggesting talking therapy. Talking out your problems is a very powerful treatment for depression.

Jesus said, “For out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks.” If you’re suffering anxiety and depression today, be encouraged to pour out your heart to a compassionate confidant. However, there is another outlet for your confessions that is probably more powerful: prayer.

Word of God is sharper than a double-edged sword; it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit. Talking out your problems to God and a friend will start the healing process, and the Word of God will complete it.

God-tracking is pouring your heart out to Jesus.
