"When someone says, "if you really love God and walk according to His Word you will never get depressed," clearly they have never read the scriptures and never have been depressed. Elijah called down fire from heaven in a spectacular victory, yet he became so depressed in his aftermath that he wanted to die. "It is enough! Now, Lord, take my life" (1 Ki 19:4 NKJ).  That's major-league depression!

When you try to act super-spiritual and allow people to think you never battle in areas like fear, failure, finances, family, or feelings, you give them a complex and cause them to walk away feeling they're not spiritual or mature enough to be used by God."

I read this in a devotional given by my church today.
it's brilliant.
