GOD NEVER FAILS.

Nothing great can be achieved without enthusiasm, little wonder then people say a man is known by what it takes to discourage him. A great obstacle to enthusiasm is discouragement. Discouragement brings about loss of enthusiasm, it makes every situation seems hopeless and every reason for living sounds unconvincing. A popular legend reveals that discouragement is the greatest weapon of the devil. A discouraged person is on the oath of losing hope. He also has a great temptation to give up faith in God. The Lord reassures us in today’s Gospel (Luke 18:1-8) that our God does not fail. He is always faithful, even though he may delay, he answers prayer. He may not give us what we ask for in prayer, but we will not lack what we need for survival.
