RE: DO NOT BE DISCOURAGED!

Do not be discouraged....This is obviously saying the obvious but I want to repeat this word and pray it sinks deep within your soul, do not be discouraged.

Life is full of discouragements. Everything around us is working sometimes to discourage us but as committed believers in God we must never ever be discouraged no matter how discouraging the matter or issue might be.

Let me share 5 tips on how you can overcome discouragement in this article.

1. Realize that discouragement never lasts. It is a seasonal issue that tends to come and go but your business is to master it and become a victor in life by knowing that this too will pass.

2. Remember the amazing days of the past. Remember the great breaks, the glory filled days and pray to God for your life to be filled continually with such days.

3. Rejoice despite your difficulties and your challenges knowing that you can only get stronger, better and wiser as you continue in your journey of life.

4. Refuse to live in discouragement alley. Choose to live in Joy boulevard. Remember that life is a choice that we must daily make and it is up to you and I to choose where we daily pitch our tent. Intentionally choose to live in Joy boulevard rather than disappointment alley.

5. Rethink your strategies, it is possible that you need to rethink the way you think, your expectations, and your efforts and endeavours. We usually get disappointed when things are not working as we planned. This might mean that you need to change your plans, strategies and so on so that you can obtain better outcomes in life.

The next time you face any form of discouragement get a cane and drive it far away from your life. You have my permission to do this because discouragement can become a stronghold if not quickly checked.   Finally it is important to be thankful and grateful for the power to be alive because life can truly be worse than we are presently having it so let us learn gratefulness and thankfulness to the Living God for His continual grace and mercies.

This time will soon pass and it will bring a time of love, laughter, light and true refreshing living by the grace of God Almighty. Do not panic, do not despair, do not cave in or give up. Keep trusting, keep believing, keep hoping and the tide will soon turn for your good and for me also.

Keep the faith, till you hear from me again, keep shining, reigning and winning!!!
