Never Give Up !!



Dear loving people,

How often do we start moving in one direction, face opposition and then quit immediately? Just imagine for a second that you had such a great idea, you had tremendous passion for it, but once the real work came, you walked yourself out! It happens all the time to even the strongest willed people. They give up just when the best things are about to happen.

As far back as 118 BC, Polybius (the Greek historian) was right when he said “Some men give up their designs when they have almost reached the goal; while others, on the contrary, obtain a victory by exerting, at the last moment, more vigorous efforts than before.” Just think back how often we kill the very bright dreams we ourselves conceived just by quitting.

The Bible in 1 Corinthians 10:13 assure us that no temptation including that of quitting has overtaken you that is not common to man. But you must remember at all times that God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

Again from 2 Corinthians 6:4–5, we are cautioned not to give up even when the fragmenting effect of multiple pressures seems relentless. But as children of God we commend ourselves in every way: by great endurance, in afflictions, hardships, calamities, beatings, imprisonments, riots, labors, sleepless nights, hunger and hard work.

Bruno Mars in his beautify song advices…
When you want to do something that’s new
And it seems really, really hard to do
You feel like quitting, you feel you're through
Well I have some advice for you

Don’t give up
Keep on trying
You’re gonna make it
I ain't lying
Don’t give up, don’t ever quit
Try and try and you can do it
Don’t give up, yeah

Don’t give up on the course you have chosen because it is persistence that takes you to success. If Walt Disney quit too soon after his theme park concept was trashed 302 times, there will be no Disneyland Resort today.

Done give up on God because he has not given up on you, Job in the Bible will not have gotten his life and wealth back if he had given up on God in the middle of his complete desolation.

At all times, keep the relationship between Choices, Chances and Changes because you must make a choice to take a chance or your life will never change. One thing is for sure, if you give up too soon, you will never know what you’ll be missing.

Keep going and NEVER Give-up
