Don’t Quit in the Middle

urbirthright, , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

We have officially reached the middle of the year.  For many people, this is where dreams become difficult.  The vision board that once inspired us may now feel distant.  The goals we confidently wrote down in January may seem unfinished.

The momentum we started with may have slowed.  But there is something important about the middle.  The middle is where transformation happens.  The beginning is filled with excitement.  The end is filled with celebration.  But the middle is where character is built.

It is where consistency is tested and it is where faith is developed.  It is where perseverance is forged.  Many people mistakenly believe that because they are not where they hoped to be, they have failed. That is not true.  You have not failed because you are behind. You have not failed because you needed to pause.  You have not failed because life happened.  The question is not whether the journey has been difficult.  The question is whether you will continue. 

This is the perfect time for a mid-year review.

Review your goals.
Review your habits.
Review your priorities.
Review your schedule.

Then make adjustments.

A wise person is not afraid to restructure.  Sometimes success requires less quitting and more recalibrating.  The remaining months of this year still carry tremendous potential.  There are books still to write, businesses still to launch and prayers still to be answered. Healing still needs to take place and relationships still to be restored.  Your purpose still to be fulfilled.  As you move into the second half of this year, refuse to surrender your vision.  Refuse to let disappointment define you.  Refuse to allow delay to convince you that God has forgotten you.

Remember the words of Galatians 6:9:

“And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.”

Keep building.

Keep believing.

Keep becoming.

The middle is not the end of your story.  It is simply the chapter where you decide that quitting is no longer an option.

Keep Building. Keep Believing.

Safety and Assurance

In the tapestry of life, there are moments when the shadows of doubt and fear loom large, threatening to engulf us in a sea of uncertainty. It is in these times of spiritual warfare that we are called to rise, to stand firm in the face of adversity, and to embrace the saving hand of GOD with unwavering FAITH and courage.

Imagine a fortress, strong and unshakeable, standing tall amidst the chaos and turmoil of the battlefield. This is the image that Psalms 18:2 paints for us – a vivid portrayal of GOD as our rock, our fortress, and our deliverer. In the midst of the storm, HE is our refuge, our shield, and the horn of our salvation. HIS presence is our stronghold, a sanctuary of peace and protection in the midst of spiritual battles.

When the winds of doubt howl and the waves of despair threaten to overwhelm us, we can find solace and strength in the words of Psalms 18:2. The Lord, our ever-present help in times of trouble, and HE stands ready to shield us from the fiery darts of the enemy and to lead us to victory. In HIS embrace, we find courage, hope, and the assurance that we are never alone in the battle.

The journey of spiritual warfare is not an easy one, but it is a journey that is marked by faith, perseverance, and the unwavering love of GOD. As we navigate the twists and turns of life, we can take comfort in the knowledge that we are held in the palm of HIS hand, safe and secure in HIS unfailing grace. In the moments of darkness, HIS light shines bright, guiding our steps and illuminating the path to victory.

Let us embrace the challenge of spiritual warfare with passion and conviction, knowing that we are warriors of light, armed with the power of FAITH and the sword of truth. Let us stand firm in the knowledge that GOD is our rock, our fortress, and our deliverer, and that in HIS strength, we can overcome any obstacle and push through any trial.

May the words of Psalms 18:2 resonate in our hearts and minds, filling us with courage, hope, and the unshakeable belief that we are more than conquerors through HIM who loves us. In the tapestry of life, let us be woven together by the threads of FAITH, united in our journey of spiritual warfare, and anchored in the saving hand of GOD.

Yours in Christ Jesus,

Persistence Conquers All…

Perhaps it’s LOVE that conquers all…Today I choose to merge the two together. (Persistent LOVE) There will be no denial in my Love for you….what a powerful decree and declaration on to day. I know that today is Valentine’s Day and some people are compelled to do something special today. Why don’t you do that special thing just because I love you today or any day for that matter? The Bible says LOVE is the greatest gift. Let’s choose to be persistent in Love today and every day. What area in your Life or who in your Life could you could show persistent LOVE too? In doing so, you will conquer all that God has ordained for you.
1 Corinthians 13:13 Living Bible (TLB)
13 There are three things that remain—faith, hope, and love—and the greatest of these is love.
