Don't Lose Heart by Jason Meyer

  Discouragement can be defeated. 'Don’t Lose Heart' is about having hope when discouraged from the events of this life, whether personal or worldly.

Welcome!


Hi Friend, Welcome to my corner of the online world, where I write to encourage and give hope. I believe everyone could use a dose of hope from time to time so whether you need hope for your marriage, your closet or anything in between, I hope you find some encouragement here.

Having been through some hard situations, I understand what it's like to live hopeless, depressed, angry and bitter. Until God rescued me in His Love and Grace.
