60 Seconds of Hope with Horace McMillon
When We Feel Discouraged
When We Feel Discouraged
“But I said, ‘I have labored in vain; I have spent my strength for nothing and vanity; yet surely my cause is with the LORD, and my reward with my God.’”
— Isaiah 49:4
Isaiah is remembered as one of the great prophets of history. The legacy of his words and ministry is difficult to overstate. Generations later, his words would be the very ones Jesus used to announce and describe the launch of his own public ministry.
Legacy is most often recognized in hindsight—but while it is being formed, it feels very different. Isaiah endured setbacks, disappointments, and heartbreak. The hard days far outnumbered the easy ones throughout his long life and ministry.
There were times he felt ineffective. There were times he felt like a failure. There were moments when it seemed as though all his effort had been poured out for nothing. In those moments, Isaiah clung to his faith. He trusted God to make his labor count for something—to bring redemption, to sustain hope, and to hold the final word.
May God remind us today that nothing offered in faith is ever wasted, and that even when we feel discouraged, hope is still being formed in us and through us. Amen.
I’m Horace McMillon. This is 60 Seconds of Hope. Peace be with you.
