4 Bible Verses about Not Discouraged

there came Joseph of Arimathea, a Councilor, honorable in rank, who was himself also looking for the kingdom of God. He boldly went in to Pilate to ask for the body of Jesus.

He also taught them by a parable how they ought always to pray and never to lose heart.

Therefore I am always of good courage, because I well know that while I am at home in the body, I am in banishment from the Lord,

So I have good courage, and am well pleased rather, to be in banishment from the body and to be at home with the Lord.
