ENCOURAGING YOURSELF : Rev. Peter Ameadaji ( Sunday Service)

<p>It is not common to see people talking to themselves. Others tend to view this behaviour as a sign of losing touch with reality or a form of derailment.</p> <p>Perhaps we need a re-think on the value of the act of talking to oneself.</p> <p>In Psalm 42, we see the Psalmist talking to himself about his depressed soul before even talking to God about it.</p> <p>When you are depressed, remember to take advantage of the spiritual antidepressants in Psalm 42.</p> <p>Question your soul, testify about God’s goodness, admonish yourself to hope in the Lord. Minister to yourself, as David did, by personally applying the very encouragement you have given others.</p>
