Bible meditations to combat sadness and bring joy
Take time to breathe the Word of our God. Take in a deep breath while reading one line of a verse and slowly exhale the next line of the verse. You can pick and choose the passages that you want to meditate on. You can choose one or more at a time. However, I want to encourage you to do each passage 4 to 5 times.
