A WISE man once wrote: "Have you shown yourself discouraged in the day of distress? Your power will be scanty." (Proverbs 24:10) If you have ever been discouraged, you will likely agree with that statement.
No one is immune to the effects of discouragement. A mild bout of discouragement may last for a day or two and then subside. But when hurt feelings or resentment are involved, the problem may persist much longer. Some Christians who have been faithful for years have become so disheartened that they have even stopped attending congregation meetings and sharing in the field ministry.
If you feel discouraged, take heart! Faithful servants in times past successfully coped with discouragement, and with God's help, so can you.
