No matter what you are going through be encouraged. Yes, sometimes it's easier said than done. There were many days I had and still encourage myself. Speaking life into my situation gives me hope and courage when feeling low. When I feel like I can’t make it I encourage myself. God has been good to me. Good has brought me a long way. I learned to say positive things in a negative situation. I had to believe what I was speaking to myself. When I believed what I was speaking. I found myself in another place, where my soul was uplifted. The joy of the lord has come back in. I started thinking better. I was able to relax and not be pressed down with the weights I was carrying. I would be able to walk with the peace of God. Remember no matter what you are going through encourage yourself.
