Elijah was publicly strong, but in the quiet moments, feelings of despair set in (1 Kings 19:1-7). People today frequently face situations bigger than they can handle. Sometimes its temporary despair brought on by fatigue, as in Elijahs case. He prayed for what he wanted (to die), God answered by giving him what he needed (sleep and food). But sometimes despair is more than a temporary condition which is why its imperative that we talk about depression openly and compassionately. God offers His presence to us in lifes darkest moments, which enables us, in turn, to be His presence to those hurting. - from the daily devotional
