Manisa blessed and encouraged so many people. She was so humble and sweet. I know her family and friends are so devastated to have her be away. I will never forget her beautiful smile! I am praying for her family and friends.🙏🏽❤️

[@joycetischbein2790]

Mandisa, your music has kept me going and got me out of bed when depression wanted me to stay down. I have good morning as my alarm and it wakes me up every morning, I dance to the bathroom and start my day talking to Jesus, we all bleed the same needs to be our national anthem of the USA! Love you and thank God everyday! God bless you on your journey to complete healing.

Even though Mandisa is with the Lord, her message of hope and her positive message of encouragement. We will carry on your spirit of joy and share your message of hope with others who feel they have no hope.

[@gr8lyblzdhighlyfavored862]

I have prayed that she just went peacefully in her sleep of natural causes and that the Enemy didn't convince her to harm herself. She is so greatly missed. 😢

[@donaldschaefer6860]

Thank you Mandisa, Sheila, and Life Today for this interview. Two ladies that have helped me so much in my Christian journey -- two wonderful sisters in Christ. Thank you for talking about your struggles with depression Mandisa. I know your story is helping so many people.

[@maureencummings2]

Such a devastating loss,,,!

[@mireilletshiteya284]

Mandisa, you are free indeed now, yes, the Son of God, our Beloved Savior Jesus Christ set you free indeed! You fought so hard to live in this broken world. Overcomer, Stronger, Free, Out of the Dark, Shine, Unfinished... so many insperational songs! Your life was a gift to this world, and a living witness and testament to the next world and eternal life with Jesus Christ. Yes, you loved Him, and there is no doubt that He loved you. You fought so hard. Your struggle wasn't visible through your beautiful and lively smile! You loved singing and dancing, you were created for more than what this world allowed you to be. You felt rejected and alone, misunderstood and ashamed. No more. No more hurt for you, baby girl, you are in the arms of the only One who truly understood you, knew you completely and loved you immeasurably. May Abba Father, our Merciful and Faithful God, bless your soul and reward you for fighting so hard until the very end of this life. But it is not the end for you! Eternal life was the gift you received from Abba for believing in Jesus as Lord and Savior. You are more alive today than ever before! Oh girlfriend! Sing with the host of saints and heavenly choir! Sing girl, sing! God bless you for who you were here on earth, a living witness of His power to save. Welcome beloved soul, to eternity with Jesus. ❤️❤️‍🩹💕

[@Serenity-iv2qh]

Hi Sheila, as I looked at this interview you had with Mandisa almost 2 years ago, and what just happened last week, she was found dead in her apartment in Nashville, I can't help wondering why are we still loosing so many people to depression? Such a beautiful soul, so talented and God Fearing person. Could it be that we need to take our Professional Counseling techniques up a notch? I thought it was worth it to throw that out there! My prayers and love go to her family.

[@jennabecca73]

Do you personally know anyone dealing with chronic depression?

[@Serenity-iv2qh]

Not personally, but having a little bit more time to watch TV and becoming more familiar with what's going on in our society through Social Media, I found these depressing cases making News a bit too often. I've always thought including to our Professional Counseling techniques things like: getting acquainted and visiting other countries abroad to see and experience their way of living could help appreciate all that we have and develop more appreciation, specially in basic necessities and also women status (we haven't arrived yet, but I'd like to think we're on our way). Also I think a good lifestyle of living with an adequate diet and outdoor exercises can make a huge difference. Good friends also, but they are so hard to find these days. A good Bible based Church also counts, I think she had that entourage. That's all I would say for now. Thanks for showing interest and reading my comment.

[@damianedwards8827]

Big up, Mandisa. Blessingz. And thank you

[@gracegrace1896]

I am unable to give my youngest child what he needs as an adult because tyrannical psychiatry has abused him, tried to kill him, over drug him, traumatize him. From 19-29 he has been suffering in this tyrannical ungodly system. It has traumatized me. I wish people cared about the people who suffer torture and even death within our psych hospitals. It’s all hidden. No accountability. People are tortured and killed. Breaks my heart. I’m praying my son is free from this system and their drugs.

She didn’t harm herself. Her dad came out and said they found her on the side of her bed and that the detectives will know in 3 weeks.

[@gracegrace1896]

This is so sad to me. So many lately have left too young. I’m struggling myself plus I’ve done nothing such as Mandisa has. I have no legacy for people or God and wonder why He ever even put me on this earth. And I have no support on this earth.

You deserve to be on this earth, you deserve happiness. Fight for it

[@latashalatasha6993]

When people are placed in the spotlight, they should have counseling to help them transition. Entertainers should have in their contract counseling; I hope she is at rest.

[@joansmith-xx9ev]

[@amiesmith7283]

I believe because I have been there and didn’t even know. It was revealed y the Spirit of God, as a young minister walked up to me and said, I break the spirit of depression off you. I was shocked. You need a catalyst of the Spirit. Majority Christians live God and Jesus but they aren’t people of the Spirit so the enemy comes and takes people out in the church.

[@alexandraanderson3988]

10:50 That's what I wanted to know has she always felt that way into depression or just after her friend Keisha passed 😢😢 she just answered it I guess
