Why should you stop mourning?

Why should you refrain from mourning and depression? 

2 Samuel 19

1 Joab was told, “The king is weeping and mourning for Absalom.” 
2 And for the whole army the victory that day was turned into mourning, because on that day the troops heard it said, “The king is grieving for his son.”
5 Then Joab went into the house to the king and said, “Today you have humiliated all your men, who have just saved your life and the lives of your sons and daughters and the lives of your wives and concubines. 
6 You love those who hate you and hate those who love you. You have made it clear today that the commanders and their men mean nothing to you. I see that you would be pleased if Absalom were alive today and all of us were dead. 
7 Now go out and encourage your men. I swear by the Lord that if you don’t go out, not a man will be left with you by nightfall. This will be worse for you than all the calamities that have come on you from your youth till now.

Lord, I have sinned greatly. Sorry. Again and again I am keeping sad countenance. I am sorry, Jesus. Lord, help me to have a cheerful countenance everyday of my lifetime on this earth. I am feeling tired, troubled, lonely and bad about myself. Sorry Jesus. Help me Jesus to have a cheerful and grateful heart daily. Apart from You, I can do nothing. Please forgive me and help me, in Jesus name I pray, Amen.

This day - 29 October 2021 - when in dilemma whether to invest more

The Lord your God bless you in all the work of your hands. Deuteronomy 14:29 Deuteronomy 14 : 27 - 29 27  And do not neglect the Levites living in your towns, for they have no allotment or inheritance of their own. 28 At the end of every three years, bring all the tithes of that year’s produce and store it in your towns,   29  so that the Levites (who have no allotment or inheritance of their own) and the foreigners, the fatherless and the widows who live in your towns may come and eat and be satisfied, and so that the  Lord  your God may bless you in all the work of your hands. Proverbs 10:22  The blessing of the  Lord  brings wealth,  without painful toil for it.
