Discouraged?

Some days you need to read some good news. For me it is found in these words written over 3,000 years ago:

Why, my soul, are you downcast?
    

Why so disturbed within me?


Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him,
    

my Savior and my God. – Psalm 43:5

Do you have those days when you just feel discouraged and depressed? Today is one of those days for me. I can choose to look at my situation or I can do as one of my friends always says, “Keep looking up.” If I look up I see a new perspective and a new hope. My circumstances are not the full picture; my perspective comes from seeing that there is One who is my hope. Discouraged – Keep looking up! – Ron Friesen
