Shew me thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths. Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation ~ Psalm 25: 4-5

Never Give Up

 

Wow… long time no blog, huh?!!  I know it’s only March but we’re gearing up for summer already and all the busyness that goes along with it!

 

And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. Galatians 6:9

I’ve been meditating on that verse a lot the last few weeks.  Mostly, I’ve been thinking about it in relation to my boys… how I pour in patience, mercy, gentleness and often those are NOT the things I get back.  Not always, but it’s been those kinds of weeks!

But today, I was thinking about my own walk and how I fight the same battles over and over again without seeming to make any progress.  And how wily the enemy is to come in when we’re down and whisper there’s no point in getting up when we’re just going to fall again.  This verse came back to me again…  Don’t give up on doing what’s right, don’t become discouraged,  because when the time comes we will be rewarded if we don’t give up!

How great is our God!
