There is never any real need for growing discouraged. No matter what the condition may be, we may trust God with the outcome, while we accept our lot with cheerfulness, and do the duty that comes to our hand. There are many things we never can learn in the midst of our earthly ambitions, which must be learned, if ever, as song birds learn new songs, in darkened rooms. A Christian’s rule of life should be, never to yield to discouragement, never to faint in any trouble, but always to keep his face toward the light and his heart full of song.
