I feel discouraged in it, but with God I’m not defeated by it.
Don’t deny how you feel.
Don’t make the difficulty your identity.
Lead your thoughts and expressions.
Live by faith.

Now I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that what has happened to me has actually served to advance the gospel. 13 As a result, it has become clear throughout the whole palace guard and to everyone else that I am in chains for Christ. 14 And because of my chains, most of the brothers and sisters have become confident in the Lord and dare all the more to proclaim the gospel without fear.
Set joy before you.
