Discouragement, I think, hasn’t really been awarded sufficient respect for its potential to devastate. But discouragement is insidious. It creeps up, and in and under and worms its way into the crevices in your brain and before you know it, what was just moments ago a vague sense of “dis-courage” or lack of courage, feels now like the deepest pit of despair.
Sometimes people discourage us because they’re trying to shield us from harm. But other times those that will discourage us do so out of their own lack of courage. Your inner wisdom will know the difference.
