The greatest enemy of man is not disease, old age, or death. It is despair. – Anon
When tragedy struck them Job’s wife told him he should “curse God and die.” Job knew God was really all he needed. Hmm!
Though life is full of good days and bad days, often at times if we’re not careful we tend to dwell more on the bad, leading to despondency. The greatest tool of our enemy is despair, and it is used more often than any other. A man without hope is a beaten, defeated man. You can be sure situations will arise today to steal your joy, reminders from the past will arise to try and hold you back, and pessimists will be around with any opportunity presented. The question we’ll be faced with is: Who’s report will we believe – God or Satan’s?
Until tomorrow…..

“And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us.” –Romans 5:2-5
