Looking Back: God Has Been Faithful Through Every Season
Ten years ago, I thought the problems I faced would crush me. But looking back, I see how small they really were compared to the power of God’s faithfulness.

I was done praying!
I was done praying. That’s what I told God in the middle of my darkest valley, after sleepless nights, endless tears, and a faith that felt like it was barely hanging on. I had been crying out for breakthrough, but what came next wasn’t what I expected: five rounds of deliverance and a stay in a psychiatric hospital.
In this raw and personal testimony, I share how God met me in both the spiritual and clinical places, reminding me that healing isn’t one dimensional. Sometimes, it’s laying hands. Sometimes it’s licensed help. And sometimes its both. This is my journey of deliverance, diagnosis, and divine restoration and proof that you can be saved, love Jesus, and still need real mental health support.

In this post, we explore how therapy and faith complement each other, when to seek professional help versus pastoral counseling or deliverance, and practical ways to integrate both into your healing journey. Because you can love Jesus and have a therapist. Read on for free mental health resources, biblical encouragement, and tools for holistic healing.
