Some of our people are discouraged, Lord. Though they’ve worked hard, hard work doesn’t seem to get them where they want to go. They’re like Chicago working hard for a 2016 Olympics hosting nod, and their bid doesn’t even get them past the first round of voting. I need You, Lord, to encourage those in our congregation who have just had it with “trying harder” comments.
