Happy scriptures for Melancholies

If you are reading this, then you are no doubt one of my melancholy patients.  As you know, I have been promising for quite some time to build a happy scriptures for Melancholies page on my website. When you are getting your alone time and doubts or depression come about, read the scriptures out loud so that you can hear yourself. Remember that when a melancholy thinks down then their mood will be down, but when you think up than your mood will be up. These scriptures will assist you in developing a better attitude and help you out of the "black moods" that a melancholy can get into. Enjoy! If you have any favorites that help you personally please e-mail me at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it   and share with us!


All scriptures are from The New American Standard Bible unless otherwise stated.


The book of Psalms

Ps 3:3
3 But You, O LORD, are a shield about me,
My glory, and the One who lifts my head.

Ps 5:11-12
11 But let all who take refuge in You be glad,
Let them ever sing for joy;
And may You shelter them,
That those who love Your name may exult in You.
12 For it is You who blesses the righteous man, O LORD,
You surround him with favor as with a shield.

Ps 9:1-6
1 I will give thanks to the LORD with all my heart;
I will tell of all Your wonders.
2 I will be glad and exult in You;
I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High.  3 When my enemies turn back,
They stumble and perish before You.
4 For You have maintained my just cause;
You have sat on the throne judging righteously.
5 You have rebuked the nations, You have destroyed the wicked;
You have blotted out their name forever and ever.
6 The enemy has come to an end in perpetual ruins,
And You have uprooted the cities;
The very memory of them has perished.   

Ps 16:7-11
7 I will bless the LORD who has counseled me;
Indeed, my mind instructs me in the night.
8 I have set the LORD continually before me;
Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.
9 Therefore my heart is glad and my glory rejoices;
My flesh also will dwell securely.
10 For You will not abandon my soul to Sheol;
Nor will You allow Your Holy One to undergo decay.
11 You will make known to me the path of life;
In Your presence is fullness of joy;
In Your right hand there are pleasures forever.

Ps 18:1-3
1 “I love You, O LORD, my strength.”
2 The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer,
My God, my rock, in whom I take refuge;
My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.
3 I call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised,
And I am saved from my enemies.

Ps 23
1 The LORD is my shepherd,
I shall not want.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside quiet waters.
3 He restores my soul;
He guides me in the paths of righteousness
For His name’s sake.  4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I fear no evil, for You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You have anointed my head with oil;
My cup overflows.
6 Surely goodness and lovingkindness will follow me all the days of my life,
And I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.

(Allowances for Skype sessions within the DFW area can be made under certain instances)

* Skype is a free program you can download on your computer. Click here to download Skype. Note: You probably already have Skype on your computer so check first before downloading! If you are in a country other than the USA, please download Skype from your computer.



Step-by-step instructions


  1. Click the link to contact The Penewit Center either by telephone or e-mail to inquire about availability dates and additional information.

  2. When you call we will bill your first session via PayPal. (it is not necessary to have a PayPal account to be billed by PayPal) This first payment must be received before we can administer The Temperament Profile. The payment for the first session is for intake of the forms and administering and interpreting the Temperament Profile(s)

  3. We will e-mail the forms that you must complete before the Skype video sessions can begin.

  4. You will be billed by PayPal for each session prior to the appointment date. Each session must be paid in advance.

  5. After your second payment is made we will schedule an appointment. At that time you will be given the correct Skype address to The Penewit Center

Linda Penewit prefers using video while in session with you as it gives them the ability to view facial expressions and body language.       Please note that using the video settings on Skype is not required. If you prefer, you may view your therapist via their video camera while using Skype without using your video camera

 

-We recommend 12 sessions with an evaluation after the final session, but you may take as many or as few as you desire.

It’s the one thing that greets you when you wake up every morning...STRESS. Stress requires your undivided attention and it won’t be satisfied till it gets it. Stress pounds away at your solitude with questions like “How are you going to pay those bills”? “How did you get yourself into this mess with your mate”? “No one wants you...you are a reject” “You will NEVER be able to do this” Stress manifests itself in other ways as well...ways that you cannot seem to counter no matter how hard you try.

Yet there is always an “avenue” that will lead you to that place where stress becomes understandable so that you can find a way out. I’m not suggesting that I can show you how to remove all stress from your life (although there are a few that I know that HAVE done just that), but I can show you how to manage that portion of your life that is reachable to you...and it’s easier than you may think. Imagine if you will...that you have to carry around a 50 pound bag of cement all day long wherever you go. There’s no way out of this situation...you HAVE to carry this 50 pound of sand around 24/7. But what if I could come to you and remove 40 pounds of that cement out of your bag? Life would be so much more enjoyable wouldn’t it?

Lets look at the Melancholy for example...She is a person who has a career working with people. In fact she is around a compulsive amount of people on a daily basis. But her temperament is stressed greatly when she is forced to be around people. Or the Sanguine who has a career as a researcher working in a lab alone. He needs to be around people or he will become stressed as well. Read more...

We read about Attention Deficit Disorder on the internet, in the news papers and on Television, and yet, it doesn’t seem that “they” are really any closer to answers than they ever were. Physicians use a wide variety of drugs to try to “treat” children who are “suffering” from this “disorder” and yet, reports show that drugs are not as effective as they had hoped. Although we hear about ADD/ADHD in adults, the condition does not seem (in some cases) to be as debilitating as it is in children, but why? Read more...
