More than once we have felt discouragement in our lives, for different reasons that have arisen, and it is normal for that to happen, because as human beings we tend to have moments like these in some way.

Many times the discouragement comes through work, (lack of interest), family problems, financial problems, we lose the desire to go to church, among others. Maybe! In some of those we have been at some point, but we have already overcome that stage. When you find yourself in that state: "discouraged" you lose the desire to move on, you feel unable to spend that inactive moment of your life.

It is normal that you spend those moments, moreover, in the bible we find great characters who became discouraged and even our Lord Jesus Christ, but the most interesting of all, is that God raised them.

For example; Job, who initially had a normal life, then began to lose everything, and was left with nothing, even his own friends questioned him, despite those difficult times that happened, in the end God raised him and blessed him greatly.
