Why art thou cast down , O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God. – Psalm 42:11
One, it’s normal to feel discouraged. In fact, don’t be surprised when it shows up when you’ve not had enough sleep, or rest or a break from a sudden onslaught of demands and expectations. It’s part of being a Spirit navigating life in a physical Earthsuit.
Two, you don’t have to wait it out…you can instead encourage yourself. Many times you have to just decide to encourage yourself. And when you’re in the habit of doing that, discouragement doesn’t have a lot of room to stay.
