Like a large sculpture or big bubble letters coming out of the darkness the word DISCOURAGEMENT glowed in the recesses of my mind. I relate discouragement or its forms to the thoughts concerning pain and sacrifice. Not a sacrifice of reward, but a sacrifice of hurt, wounding, or scarring. A memory that marks a moment. Taking on a form of physical, mental or emotional formation that remains like a Greek marble statue or Corinthian column.

Lust of anything is something that creates division or dissociation from a real connection with God. Do we lust after the fruits of the Spirit?

I hope this is a good word or challenge to not remain. Press on.
