The following busi- nesses supported the Mus- tang golf program through their support of this tour- nament: Les Schwab Tire, Another Reason to Speak in Tongues The number one reason for ministerial dropout is not money or morals but discouragement. Jude verse 20 says to build up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost. This can be a very powerful means of overcoming discouragement. It is not meant to be a means of dealing with clinical de- pression or any such thing as that, but I Corinthians 14:4 says, "He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself." I'm not sure just how to explain this: like the old fellow said, "it's better felt than telt." We walk by faith, not by sight, and certainly not by feelings. "Feelings," is a poor word to use to describe what I want to say, but there is something about praying in tongues that gives a sense of God's anointing. An assurance that he is involved. It builds faith, confidence and peace. There is a sense of pow- er in it! Yes, he that speaks in an unknown tongue encourages himself.
