Don’t just give up or lay down when hard times come. And, if you are alive, hard times will come. That is not the time to do nothing – but the time to get in My Word. Speak My promises out loud – believe in your heart!
Put on praise songs and sing! All of the things that take effort – do them because they work. They change the very air that you breathe and bring light into a dark time. Know that these times are not forever – but a season.
Sometimes it is just a matter of giving yourself rest – of saying not now, when life gets too busy. But never, never give up! Rest in Me. Find a quiet spot in which to be restored. You will come through with a strengthened determination.
Always know that I will never leave you. My love will always sustain and empower you. Press on!
