Here’s a one-liner that caught my attention.
“Discouragement is impatience.”
God always has the final say in our life, with no exceptions. And God is good, so the final outcome of any experience we have is always going to be very good.
Sometimes we don’t see the full fruition of our hope here on earth, but earth is a short-term blip in the big scheme of things. It’s like a blink of the eye in the face of eternity.
Discouragement forgets God. It is mortal mind blindness to heavenly good all around. It’s like an empty hole in the ground waiting to be filled.
Truth is the “filler!” And all the truth a sincere student could ever need is readily available today from inspired thinkers that have gone before us.
Dig into the Bible and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, and you’ll find the gold that meets your need.
“Patience must ‘have her perfect work.'”
And no more discouragement is part of the prize.
Thanks a lot for this, just what I needed to hear this morning..Much Love
Thanks, Evan. Always appreciate these reminders. Disappointment, impatience, frustration (=disappointed human will). The real truth of each of us is the opposite of these: anointed, appointed, patience that is conviction of what’s true, and childlike obedience to God’s goodwill toward His loved child, spiritual man.
All of your messages are helpful, but this one is especially good for me to hear. To feel discouragement is to stop listening to God. This becomes a reminder to turn back to God, to the Christ message.

Evan, your comments are always so “spot on”. Seems whatever I’m dealing with at the moment, your posts get right to the heart of it. Thanks so much.
Gosh, there’s a great deal of useful material above!
