Discouragement

When I was a teenager someone wrote a note to me, as follows....wish I had read it over and over during some years, but now I can post it here and consistentlly remember...

"Discouragement, of course, is the devils principal tool. TAKE IT AWAY FROM HIM! Don't let him use it. He tries it on each of us....Have FAITH. The Lord, when we put our trust in Him, will see us through any dfficulty, BUT IT IS UP TO US to place trust in Him and exercise courage and faith. We must also do our part to move forward, difficult as it may sometimes seem."

This was an Institute teacher of mine, Ronald W. Walker (I believe he is now an author as well!)
