Encouragement For Crisis Living (Acts #18)
It has never been more true that it takes courage to live! You have the word “encourage” and from it you get “courage,” but if you add a “dis” in front of it, it means that you’ve lost your courage. As we continue in our study of the Book of Acts we see Paul recognizing how difficult life was. But he didn’t want the people he had helped to to give up. He wanted them to hold onto their courage to live and not to let anyone take it from them. That message is just as needful for us today as it was for the people Paul wanted to encourage.
