DON'T GIVE UP






A whole lot of time as humans, we are tempted to want to quit especially when the going gets tough or when our dreams aren’t coming true as at when expected.

Luke 9:62 says “And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to plough, and looking back is fit for the kingdom of God”.

For anyone that wants to achieve any meaningful thing on earth, the person must learn how not to give up easily. I love a song by Infinity Crew that says – PRESS ON. Had Thomas Edison, Wright brothers, Henry Ford and Abraham Lincoln quit, would anyone know them? No! Quitters don’t get known. Winners don’t quit and quitters don’t win.

I understand it could be very tough holding on or pressing on, but I want you to understand that it is a phase. A woman about to give birth keeps pushing until the baby comes out because she knows it’s a phase. After that phase she sighs heavily and starts rejoicing. The same holds for your dreams, keep pushing, keep pressing on, and don’t give up on your dreams, the world will soon rejoice with you.

Have you thrashed some of your dreams in the waste bin of your mind? Is there a particular business plan that you once tried to launch but wasn’t coming out good and you decided to thrash it? Have you tried furthering your education and all odds seem to be against you?
This is not the time to give up. NO! Press on. Don’t give up on your marriage. Don’t give up on that big dream. Remember it’s always darkest before dawn. Whenever life grows difficult and the pressure is turned on and the idea of giving up seems the best, that’s a sign that your time is near.

This year is loaded with great opportunities. If you won’t give up, God won’t give up. I am so sure that in 2013, dreams will be realized, marriages will work, businesses will boom and lives will be better, but you have to play your part – DON’T GIVE UP.

In this year, everything you lay your hands to do shall prosper in Jesus Name.
