When it comes to moments of discouragement, there are two ways to go.  Either we can try to work it out on our own or, a better choice, give it over to God.  That was the choice the Apostle Paul had to make in the midst of his own stress, discouragement and despair.  In II Corinthians we learn about some of the practical steps Paul took to overcome his discouragement.  It’s in his counsel that we’re instructed to trade in our discouragement, and live in the light and will of God; to glorify Jesus Christ, and live in harmony with the Holy Spirit.  Let’s learn how.
