I was cured of depression overnight: This is a striking testimony from a priest who found himself overwhelmed by depression and on the verge of leaving ministry. He describes reaching a point where even medication seemed meaningless, where prayer felt unanswered, and where pilgrimages to some of the Church's most famous shrines appeared to bring no relief. Walsingham. Lourdes. Silence. Finally, in Medjugorje, he reached the end of himself & spoke a desperate prayer to Our Lady: "You have to do something or I'm going to resign." Whether one accepts Medjugorje or remains cautious about it, the deeper story here is profoundly human. It is about despair, perseverance, prayer & the mysterious ways grace sometimes arrives only when all other hopes seem exhausted. Many people who struggle with depression will recognise something of themselves in this account.
