Why do we become discouraged...
Illustration
Why do we become discouraged? Something in verse 16 that Paul said he never became? There are many reasons, some valid, some not so valid. We understandably focus on what we see and sometimes there seems to be nothing to guide us to hope. Paul states that he fixed his attention not on the things that are seen, which often rob us of hope, but of things unseen.
