This daily prayer and devotional reminds you that you're not alone—and that your suffering does not separate you from God’s love. In this encouraging message, author Emily Rose Massey shares powerful truth from John 15:4–5 about abiding in Christ during life’s hardest seasons. Just as a branch can’t bear fruit without staying connected to the vine, we too need to remain in Jesus to find strength, peace, and hope. When anxiety and depression hit, it’s easy to feel disconnected from your faith. But God invites you to remain—abide—in Him. In your brokenness, He is still your source of life. 📖 Today’s Scripture Reading: “Abide in me, and I in you... apart from me you can do nothing.” – John 15:4–5 (ESV) Abiding in Jesus anchors your soul when anxiety or depression overwhelms. Spiritual growth often happens underground—in hidden, hard seasons. Prayer and God’s Word are lifelines to peace and renewal. You’re not defined by your struggle—you are held and strengthened by Christ.
