I gave up once before. When I first started blogging I had given God a year to bring forth fruit within the ministry I had started, 30 days later I gave it all up. It wasn’t what I had originally planned on doing, and it wasn’t meeting up with my personal goals. So I quit in order to focus on something that did meet my personal goals, however to my surprise it wasn’t really the answer.
So I’m faced with the dilemma again, I thought I had already come to terms with my commitment to what I am doing right now. I’m committed to God, my husband, family, & ministry. But you know what? I’m tired of having to keep on proving that. I’m tired of having to fight, fight, fight for what I know is true and believe in.
Why is there so much resistance? I’m tired of the resistance. Whenever I am met with resistance I really need to evaluate how much I am committed to this ministry, but right now it’s difficult to fight for it. I just want to cave. I just want to give up, again.
Even in the resistance God always sends His still small voice. Of course all the other LOUDER, negative, voices drown His out, but He is still there. Oh how sweet it is to hear my own husband say “Keep doing what you are doing.” The times when I do have my doubts I think on what my husband says, and I know those words are a gift from God.
Sweet, encouraging words. That is where my focus needs to be.
I’m not going to give up this time, I have already made up my mind around that. I just need to stay focused on the sweet encouraging words that God sends my way through His precious servants!
