Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.
Psalm 42:11
Sometimes you put out way more than you receive. You become discouraged when others don't give you the same energy, time and devotion. In those moments your heart becomes faint and when you need others the most, they never seem to be around. It's true, encouragers sometimes get silenced by disappointment.
Yet, King David did something that we all can learn from and adopt when we feel let down regardless of the source. He asked himself the question "why are you disquieted within in me?" When we take a deeper look at the reason for our dismay, we realize that our dependency should be in God alone...not even ourselves!
We should always redirect our attention to God so that he can encourage our hearts. God is the one that can lift our countenance. It comes from his word, a song, and the person you never thought would have you on their minds. God knows exactly what we need when we need it the most. In the midst of it all, know that we have the best encourage that cheer us on daily the incomparable Holy Spirit.
