Poker played well can make you happy - and maybe even make you some money. But when things go wrong, the game can be painful. That's probably especially true if you're trying to make money, or even competing as a "poker pro."
You can chalk up your losses to the "breaks of the game" -- or as they at NASCAR tacks, "That's racin'." But continued difficulties can start to affect your thinking or your outlook on life. You might even begin to feel depressed.
Did you know people in the Bible had moments of depression? Even leaders that you might think were filled with joy? The Bible mentions several, and we think you can learn from their stories.
We've been going through a radio minister's message on "Dealing With Depression." It was presented in two parts (our link is to Part Two, which includes sections of Part One). We strongly suggest you take notes on it, because the Bible verses come quickly at times. But we think it's worth a listen, if you're dealing with doubt and "down" moments. (Our link will probably only work for a limited time, so download or hear it quickly.)
