All discouragement and depression is related to the obscuring of our hope, and we need to get those clouds out of the way and fight like crazy to see clearly how precious Christ is.” WayNeedsHeartChristianPainFightingJesusChristViewsStruggleClearCrazyObjectsDiseaseDepressionShotsJesus ChristPressureCloudsObjectivesRelatedDiscouragementFierySatanicDefectiveDarts Author:John Piper
