/Fight Discouragement
Seek those things which are above  Colossians 3:1

Turn not from the path of truth.  Many testings shall beset you, but your God shall be your refuge.
Open wide your soul, and the Lord will fill it with His goodness. Your heart shall drink in His mercy and love, for His ear is attuned to your cry, and your desire toward Him shall be generously rewarded.
He knows your need and the depth of your searching.  Only as you fight discouragement can you make room for Him to bless you in full measure as He desires to do.
/
What makes us discouraged?  Would we be less discouraged if we walked closer to God?  You say but I am, I don't think any of us are walking near as close to God as he desires or as he wants  What does it mean to walk close to God?  I don't think we can really comprehend his desire for a close relationship with him.
Words from a song, draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord to thee.......

Father, Help us to understand and comprehend your desire for us, your desire for us to love you.  There isn't anything that we do for you that compares with your desire for us to lvoe you, help us to hunger and thirst for you.  In Jesus Name. Amen.

Yesterday, was a school day, and it is really raining so everything is wet, muddy and water standing.  I went to Cando after school and cleaned at the church, Dad came and got me for Bible Study, we were at Wagenmans.
