Galatians 6:9 (NKJV) 9 And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.
Life and its challenges can be tiring. It can wear us down and cause us to want to give up sometimes.
We may go through seasons where we feel like we can’t seem to catch up or get ahead, no matter what we do. It happens to all of us from time to time. It’s part of life here on earth. It’s normal.
But, feeling like we want to give up shouldn’t cause us to actually want to give up. That feeling we get is simply our emotions pulling on us. We shouldn’t live based on our emotions, though. Emotions are fleshly. We should live by the Spirit!
Romans 8:13 (NKJV) 13 For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.
As we learn to live and walk by the Spirit, we will spend less time being ruled by our emotions. We will also spend less time feeling run down, defeated and hopeless.
Instead, we will accomplish so much more. And God’s word promises us a harvest if we don’t give up!
So, push those fleshly emotions down and let the Spirit lead you, drawing your strength from God. Amen.
