    By this I know that you delight in me: my enemy does not shout in triumph over me. Psalm 41:11 CSB It’s easy to lose heart when you feel like you’re being bullied.

    Circumstances Uncontrolled

    Likewise the chief priests also, mocking with the scribes and elders, said, "He saved others; Himself He cannot save.
