“And let us not neglect our meeting together,

as some people do,

but encourage one another.”

Hebrews 10:25 NLT

Tired

DURING THE FIRST Gulf War, military strategists dropped bombs at night on our enemies…

Even though bombing at night wasn’t as effective because it was harder to hit targets at night, the reason they did so was so that they could keep the Iraqis awake. If our air force could deprive them of sleep, the Iraqis would be so weary and stressed out that they wouldn’t be able to fight back.

When our physical resources have been depleted, we are much more susceptible to discouragement.

“And all of them conspired together

to come and attack Jerusalem and create confusion.

Nevertheless we made our prayer to our God,

and because of them we set a watch against them day and night.

Then Judah said, “The strength of the laborers is failing,

and there is so much rubbish that we are not able to build the wall.”

Neh. 4:10-11; cf. 1 Kgs. 18 – 19:1-4; Gal. 6:9

Tired and discouraged?  I am.  Please pray for all those who are in this situation of life.
