But those who endure to the end will be saved.
Matthew 10:22
Like a runner in the middle of a marathon, we often want to quit before the race in complete. Whether the obstacle is at home, work, or a community project, difficult circumstances are real and hit us smack in the face and often times we want to cry out, “I’m done!”
The Bible recognizes that life is difficult and at times overwhelming. Faith does not prevent hardships, but it does offer resources, encouragement, and hope to help us preserve when we feel like quitting.
Application
When you feel like quitting, take a short break, reflect, and then finish the race.
Prayer
Lord, give me the stamina and faith to endure what you put in my path.
