IT HAPPENED TO ME

IT HAPPENED TO ME!
Jogging this morning as I always do to keep physically fit,( as we also need to spend time praying, worshiping, studying God's Word, fasting and serving others to stay spiritually fit. 1 Timothy 4:8.), it was very cold out there - it's winter. Now, having jogged quite a distance, I had to continue uphill on a long stretch. The going got more and more difficult. I started to pant, puff and huff, straining to take the next step, my muscles burning and aching while I struggled to continue. It was an uphill task indeed! My mind, thoughts and body  screamed at me to stop, give up and turn back. But as I looked ahead, I thought I should keep pressing to get to the end of the hill no matter the strain and struggle, though, now breathing the cold, dry winter air through my mouth! Then, I got to the top! However, as I continued and began descending, I wondered why I ever considered giving up just a while ago, because I was no longer climbing, enduring and struggling, but descending, enjoying the fun and gliding effortlessly! Thank God I REFUSED to give up.

If you're tired, struggling and thinking of giving up, look up God's infallible promises, look unto Jesus Christ who overcame every sin, temptation and obstacle in order to encourage, inspire and strengthen us to finish every task successfully including the Christian race and then get rewarded. At school, on the job or business, in your marriage, ministry and Christian walk, you will get there, you will make it, you will succeed through Christ Jesus who strengthens you. Hallelujah!


Matthew 12,13.
Because lawlessness is increased, the love of most people (to obey and remain faithful to God's Word) will grow cold.  But the one who endures, perseveres and bears up [even under struggling and suffering] to the end will be saved, delivered and blessed.

Yes, we must not give up. Every promise Jesus tells us does come to pass. There is no failure in that which Christ promises. We must endure, fight the fight, and have faith in our Lord. He conquered everything. Thanks for the share. God bless you!

A very inspiring message. I like how you used your experience jogging in the bitter cold weather as an example of endurance and perseverance no matter what. We have to remember God has been where we are and The life he lived on earth is for us to follow when such circumstances attempt to make us give up. Vernita Simmons
