                         Be Encouraged

The word "Courage" indicates that you have the willingness and readiness 
to face and deal with the challenges, fears, or difficulties. Therefore,
to be "dis-couraged" means that you do not have the readiness to face and
deal with these challenges.

Many of the things and people around you will cause you to be dis-couraged!
Many negative people give their negative opinions of your dreams and
aspirations.  They are dis-couraging.  They steal your dreams because they 
don't have a dream for themselves.

So, take time to encourage yourself in the Lord.  Tell yourself that you 
are His champion, that you are more than a conqueror!  Tell yourself that 
you are victorious in Christ who strengthens you!

Today is a day of expectation, so expect a miracle!  Expect God to move!
