There are times when it is hard to keep going. We have tried things; they have not worked out like we thought.
The results we work for are never guaranteed. It’s better to try, than to not try. No matter what the results, you will be better off for having tried. Be persistent during time of discouragement.
The Bible encourages us:
Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; – Ecclesiastes 9:10
And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; – Colossians 3:23
And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not – Galatians 6:9
But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. – Isaiah 40:31
Trying is never easy. Results we want are never guaranteed. But God will see your heart and your efforts will be rewarded. Maybe in the way you expect, maybe in a different way. God is faithful, He will reward for good work.
