Today on InSight for Living from Chuck Swindall.

You know there are a lot of areas of security that we hang on to for encouragement.

One is a good job.

If all of your security is wrapped up in your job, then all you need to do is lose that job

and discouragement will swamp you.

Let that job be threatened and you've lost an area of tangible security.

Life is hard and when normal challenges begin to stack up, sometimes we get discouraged.

It happens in the workplace.

It happens at home.

Today on InSight for Living, Chuck Swindall continues a study he started last time.

He's teaching from Nehemiah 4.

The Israelites remember we're rebuilding the wall around their city.

It seemed like an impossible task.

In fact, they were growing discouraged and some were ready to pack up their tools and

go home.

So how do we handle these inevitable moments of dejection?

Chuck titled his message Discouragement.

It's Causes and Cure.

I don't know of anything that will take the wind out of your sails like discouragement.

It was as though Nehemiah could walk back into his tent and say, well, walls just don't

like to be built.

No matter how hard I try, it's getting worse as time passes.
