20/20 Vision: Dealing with Discouragement
We live in difficult times. Many people are discouraged, depressed and just plain exhausted. And in those times, the most spiritual thing we can do is rest...just as Elijah did in 1 Kings 19, and with his rest we can see improvements.
When it comes to discouragement - two negatives never make a positive and we know that we must work together for good (Romans 8:28)
So look for the good that is going to come out of your circumstances...
Is God preparing you to help someone else?
Is this going to make you a better pastor, friend, teacher, spouse, parent?
Is God equipping you for greater responsibility?
What are you learning thru this process?
How can God use it for good? (Nehemiah 4:1-9)
