All right. You’re Discouraged. Now What? Some try to run away. Some do nothing. Now you’re depressed. What’s next? Death!

Deal with it! Overcome. Get stronger. James 1:2-4 Get better or be bitter. 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 It’s a matter of choice. There is another choice!

Jesus will help us! Matthew 11:28 We CAN overcome! Philippians 4:13 We can even overcome depression. Ex. - Peter overcame. There is HELP!

Ways To Overcome Discouragement Never miss a service. Keep busy. Pray all the time. Encourage others. Never complain. Repent immediately. Forget the past. Sing. Read God’s Word everyday.
