Yvonne Welch describes a time of testing in her life.

God was concerned with my response to what was happening in my life.

How am I going to respond if I don't like it, if I don't understand it?

It was not the stress making me sick or depressed or...

It was my own response to it.

This is Revive Our Hearts with Nancy Lee DeMoss for Tuesday, July 30th.

Yesterday, Yvonne Welch joined us.

She's a Bible teacher and speaker who has valuable things to share about her own experience with depression, stress, and hope.

Holly Ellif is also joining us.

She's a pastor's wife and a good friend of Revive

our hearts, bringing the perspective of a wife and mom to today's conversation. Here's Nancy

picking up Yvonne's story. For those who weren't able to be with us in the last session,

you shared about a really dark time early in your married life.

You had four little ones, and you came to a point of utter exhaustion where your husband

took you to a doctor, and it was kind of a crisis.

You needed some physical and spiritual, some real help. And out of that period of time, God began to do some rich

things, but it was a long, slow, hard process of recovery. Just give us, Yvonne, in a nutshell,

what did life look like in the Welch home in those days? How did your husband even know?

There's a problem here we've got to

address. Because every night I would just go to Bob and I would just say, Bob, I've just got to talk

to you. And I am so grateful that Bob would listen. He would listen and he would encourage me.

And when you talked, what did you say? I would say, Bob, I'm hurting.
