In what areas of your life do you have an
overabundance?

Most of us have extra clothing in our

closets we don’t need. Take time to go

begin to practice simplicity?

One practical way to practice the disci-

pline of giving is to tithe. Are you cur-

a weapon we use to fight discourage-
ment. Fight your feelings with the truth
of God’s Word. Write down verses you
can memorize that remind you to
rejoice.

Encouraging others is a source of true

joy. Send a note or a text to a friend
today who needs encouragement.

spending time in the Word and in
prayer. Take some time to spend with
Jesus today.

 WORSHIP IS NOT AN EXPERIENCE. WORSHIP IS AN ACT, AND THIS TAKES

DISCIPLINE. WE ARE TO WORSHIP “IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH.” NEVER
