Struggles? Your guide is the Bible!

Last week I've been feeling quite depressed.
I feel like the past is back to haunt me.
My insecurities coming back, negative thoughts clouding my mind.
I sought the Lord.
In the Bible, it says, "The Lord is near to all who call upon Him, to all who call upon Him in truth." -Psalm 145:18 (NASB).
Then His promises begin to fill my mind.
Everybody who lives on this earth will definitely have troubles and struggles in their lives. The key is whether you know who to turn to and who to seek.
For me, I am glad because I know there is a God who loves me and cares for me. I can run to Him freely as & when I like. To be still & wait upon Him. Though I can't see Him, but I know He is there.
"Faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen; it gives us assurance about things we cannot see." -Hebrews 11:1 (NLT).
I admit I can't do things on my own, however, I still know I can do it because..."For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength." -Philippians 4:13.
Lastly, I just wanna share the verses which reminds me to love others.
"4 Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.
13 Three things will last forever—faith, hope, and love—and the greatest of these is love." -1 Corinthians 13 (NLT).

P.S. "There is no fear in Love." -1 John 4:18 (NIV).
