Galatians 6:9    

⁹Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

 

The road sometimes looks long, and the end is not end sight, yet we cannot give up on the journey. We all get tired; it is only human to feel overwhelmed, less than perfect, and not capable. We all have times in our lives when we think to ourselves….”are you kidding me? What was I thinking….I will never pull this off!” It is in those moments, those quiet dark moments of doubt, and wariness, that we must not falter. There is a harvest awaiting us, and it will be bountiful for those that persevere; but we have to stay strong, we cannot give up. I know that it sounds so easy then it is spoken, yet so hard to actually carry out when you find yourself at the end of your rope! It is at those times that I urge you not to turn to the comfort of friends who will sympathize and feed that feeling of despair, instead turn to the Lord first. He will restore your strength; He will make the path easier, and lighten your burden. Turn to Him first, then friends second! After all He is your true friend, the friend that picked you before your birth, the one who has been at your side through all of your victories, and defeats. He is the one friend that always has His arms stretched out waiting for you to ask Him for the strength to carry on. Do not give up, do not tire. When the load gets heavy share that burden with the Lord.

 

Peace,

Brian
