DON’T YOU GIVE UP – 2


May 17, 2014


Dale Carnegie said most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all. In a 100m race, even the last person on the track keeps running until he gets to the finish line. Ron Kenoly said, if you are going through hell, don’t stop.

Reading the story of that woman with the twelve years issue of blood, I discovered that the woman was an exceptional woman – twelve years case of non-stop blood flow. Maybe the flow was heavy. There was pain, shame and reproach all around her. One thing that this woman did that I love so much was the fact that she did not lose her hope for a healing someday. She refused to give up on herself. She had the option of either committing suicide or just waiting for when death would come naturally, but she did not.

I don’t know what you are going through that seems it’s all over, I urge you today, don't give up. Keep on keeping on. Keep going. Don’t thrash that vision yet. Don’t dump that dream away. Don’t give up on that career. Don't be discouraged. Have you noticed that it's often the last key in the bunch that opens the lock? Most people give up just when they're about to achieve success. They quit when they are closer to the finish line. Don’t be one of them.

If you won’t give up on yourself or on that situation, God will turn it around. He will never give up on you. He is your father and your maker. He created you to enjoy life abundantly, so hang on a little more because help is on the way. Breakthrough is around the corner. Joy cometh soon. Never ever give up. Spank yourself to action and tell yourself, “I will not give up on me, because God won’t give up on me.”

Enjoy your weekend.
