Why Be Discouraged?
Are you cast down this morning and
depressed? Are you weary and discouraged? Why should Christians be
discouraged when we have such a great inheritance in our Lord and
savior Jesus Christ who gave himself for us so that we might have and
enjoy life, and have it more abundantly? We are alive; we have the
hope and promise of eternal life with God in paradise; we live in
America where we are free to worship as we please; we have a
wonderful savior who is our advocate in heaven; we have food,
clothing, and shelter, and many creature comforts to make our lives
easier.
“Why art thou cast down, O my
soul? And why art thou disquieted within me? Hope in God: for I
shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my
God.” Psalm 43: 5.
“This is the day that the Lord
hath made. Rejoice, and be glad in it. Rejoice I say in the Lord.”
