Hello LWM! I believe Christ that we are all doing well. I pray that this week may be a blessing to
you. May you listen to God's Voice in everything you do and plan to do. Today, I want to ask you something: have you ever thought of giving up because you see that you are growing up in your walk with Christ? Yesterday, I was talking to someone and the perso wanted to give up for she noticed that since she became a christian she is still struggling with some issues.
I have to say sometimes it does also happen to me. Do not get me wrong, it is because I am writing on this blog that it means that I do not have issues at all. I mean I am also a human being, someone who tries to live like Christ. We are all trying, none of us is there yet. If you also feel like giving up let me encourage you dear sister. Do not give up, keep fighting. the christian life is a constant fight, and we can only triumph in Christ Jesus. God is with us, He will help us to overcome our issues, because in Him we shall move!
Every time I feel like giving up, like I will not make it, I remember this scripture "Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God."(HEBREWS 12:2). God is the One who called me and allowed me to be part of His Kingdom. I then believe that what He started in me, He will finish it. The devil knows that God has perfect plans for us and this is why he plays with our minds so we may think the opposite. But sisters, when we feel down the best thing to do is to open your Bible and read, read about what God says about you. What people says about you does not matter much, what God says about you matter a lot!
Keep fighting the good fight. I learnt throughout my Christian walk that every Christian has a season. sometimes we feel in fire, we go all for the Lord, sometimes also we feel very weary, and that is why in Psalms 23 it is written that God renews our lives. We need to pray that God may constantly renew our lives, renew our strength. It happens that I recommit my life to Christ, sometimes I just need to do that to be restored, renewed, transformed.
We can make it, ladies. It is possible in Christ Jesus. Finally, i would like to give you a final advice. When you feel down, never ever stay on your own. Go to church, talk to someone and you shall receive strength. Being on your own will not help you at all, it will make you depress and lose your focus in Christ Jesus. Remember, God loves us too much to let us down, today there may be darkness but joy shall come in the morning! Stay strong, stay focused, do not give up, we make it!
Stay blessed!
Merci pour cet encouragement. Que Dieu te bénisse et te comble de toute grâce.
ReplyDeleteTrue.in fact as Christians we are all runners but not all of us are best runners.indeed,they are some who is run slowly, others who fall on their wheir way buy get up promptly and are others who are good runners due to their daily exercises .although we should practice to become best runner s we may not give up of the race for we all will receive our crowns of glory.amen
