Discouragement

-


Hey there!

Are you discouraged?
So am I!

Well, in the world of all pop and success. Let us accept that there are days when we feel discouraged, down, and depressed.

I too have those days, when I question everything I do when I feel my work isn't enough. When I don't feel I am good enough for anything in particular. When nothing seems to change or work out.

BUT 

Our God is a God of ALL times. If we are discouraged we must go to HIM and tell him that we are discouraged.

AND

We should acknowledge HIS sovereignty over our situation and seek HIS help to deal with, endure and hopefully get out of these discouraging situations.

WHY?
Because there are times that God allows discouragement to shape us - Joseph & David are an example.
And if Satan discourages us, HE allows it too! - Job is an example.
So we must remember this verse " all things work for good to those who love that Lord."

My Plea
I encourage you to fill your mind with positive thoughts and with the love and power of God.
Lord, please help us to know you're in control and that you'll help us deal with these real feelings of life. Lord, please change us and the situations according to your goodwill. Amen.

    We each feel discouragement at times. Isn't it wonderful to know that we can reach out to God at all times, in all things, and in all places?! It's always an extra special thing, too, when someone around us reaches out to add a little special touch of human comfort. Blessings!

Dear Judas, with love

It takes a Judas iscariot to betray. Anyone could have handed over Christ! But it takes only Judas to betray, One among the twelve, he must have seen the lame walk, The blind see, the deaf hear and the dead raised to life. The one who felt the love of Christ and participated in the 'first communion ever' . And betrayed Christ with a loving kiss! It takes a Brutus to stab Ceaser, A loved and trusted Delilah to chop Samson's hair, And A David to slay Uriah. A barking donkey or a braying dog can do no harm. It's the ones closest to our hearts that can draw a sword into it. The only bright side of this is that we've had the courage , Courage to be vulnerable enough and love someone so bad that they could bruise us this immensely. Courage? When I hear this I'm reminded of "Courage the cowardly fool".

This is an excerpt from the time I went to tenali. Down here in Tenali, Attending a church that my aunt used to attend. Women outnumber men ( this at least proves that most men aren't hypocrites ) The women here sing, according to their inspiration, each one a different song. No tempo, no tune, no melody, no nothing! A braying donkey win a competition with these people here. Beethoven would commit suicide twice. A little kid on a rustic drum playing the same beat for every song which obviously doesn't go with the song, people clapping hands with a don't care syndrome for basic rhythm is all you can find. BUT you know what? ( and this but makes all the difference of course ) God blessed these people with himself. You could sense the presence of God in this place. He rejoices even over their ignorance be it in terms of intellect or music... His measuring scales are deeper and wider than we can even comprehend. He sees the heart, he understands humane limitations
