We’ve all been there. Troubles seem to pile up, and it takes all your faith just to get up in the morning. Or maybe tragedy has struck and you are trying to put the pieces back together. Or it’s possible that you’ve just been dealing with one nagging problem for so long that it looks like it will never go away. Each of us has been tempted at one time or another to throw in the towel; to give up. And that’s just what the enemy wants us to do.
I came across a short poem years ago that always seems to speak to me in such times. I am including it here to help encourage you.
We must remind ourselves not to give up. Just think, right now you are closer to your breakthrough than you’ve ever been before. So, go get your Bible, open it up and absorb some of its life-giving encouragement. There is a light at the end of the tunnel- and you’ll make it if you hold onto faith. Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. God won’t let you down. It’s when things seem worst that you MUST NOT QUIT.
