“Never, Never, NEVER Give Up”. What a simple, but profound quote by Winston Churchill.

Ever wanted to just give up? Don’t!


In the photo of Michael Jordan, you see his path to success was never giving up, even when he failed. He looked past those failures, because he knew what he was capable of doing.


If you are like me, you’ve had to contend with yourself at some point whether to give up or keep on fighting. But we know that as soon as we give in to those “feelings” of hopelessness, we hinder our ability to see past the current situation and into the wonderful things God has for us.


Whether you are dealing with a family situation, a sickness or depression - your strength comes from the Lord. In the scope of eternity, these troubles are pretty minimal.


Don’t give up on your family restoration. Don’t give up on being whole physically and mentally. Believe in what has been given to you in the scriptures. We have seen God’s capabilities by what He has already done.


Gods' blessings our ours, not just in the future but right now. If you are going to “give in” to anything…give into that promise right, there.


2 Corinthians 4:16-17 TLB

[16] That is why we never give up. Though our bodies are dying, our inner strength in the Lord is growing every day. [17] These troubles and sufferings of ours are, after all, quite small and won't last very long. Yet this short time of distress will result in God's richest blessing upon us forever and ever! #helpforyourdailywalk #paulaandthebible
