PS 42:5 "Why are you down cast, O my soul? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise Him my Savior and my God". Depression and sadness can seem to come out of no where, it is nothing new to the children of God, but we learn from David how to break out and break through. They didn't have Prozac or other antidepressants in OT times, they had to praise their way out. When a dark cloud surrounds my soul my mind is alert and in- tuned enough to the things of God to put on praise music and begin praising Him, and after a few moments my soul is filled with peace, joy and steadfastness to continue my journey with hope. The next time your soul is down, put on worship music and begin worshiping and praising then watch how the darkness will flee from such a bright light...This stamp is from Lindy's gang and this is "Sad Sally songbird" I just love her, I colored her in pencil and oms used nesties and put glaze on her eyes. The scripture is computer generated

aww what a cute image, fab card...LOVE the voila chef on the last card :0)
What a darling card! That bird really does look "downcast"....
Your scripture comments are so thoughtful and uplifting. To help get myself out of a depressed attitude, I have found that singing or humming a favorite hymn or praise song works like a charm! I can't get lost in negative thoughts with my Lord on my mind and tongue!
So well done and your image portrays the feelings so well! Thank you for the message Becky and have a beautiful Sunday. Praise be to God!
My goodness-you are awesome-and this little bird is so great-you speak to me-you and the sad song bird!

Great image for the verse Becky! Nice colors too! Thanks for the heads up on my post. This has happened before. I uploaded it again and for the moment the photo is with it. Thanks!
Oh that poor little bird! I would sing some worship songs to her but my voice would make her feel worse! It is true that sing songs of worship to God can lift the soul. It takes the focus off of ourselves and our worries and puts the focus on Him and His glory and wonder.
perfectly said...great card too!
I love this! Your posts are so special and uplifting! Great cards, and loving thoughts! Thank you!
I just started cracking up when I saw the look on that bird's face...too funny! I am so behind in checking in on my favorite blogs and I see I have been missing some of your fabulous creations. I love coming here and seeing what you make. I'm just having a blast catching up with your creations.
awww poor bird..he looks so pathetic...what a face!this card is wonderful! TFS!
