Don’t Quit
When things go wrong as they
sometimes will,
When the road you’re trudging seems
all up hill,
When funds are low and debts are
high,
And you want to smile, but you have
to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don’t quit.

Circumstances in life can make it easy for us to become
discouraged. It’s easy to give up, but it takes courage and determination to stick
with something when you feel challenged. Above is one stanza from the popular
poem Don’t Quit. I like the line that says, “rest if you must, but don’t
quit.”
When you feel overwhelmed, stressed, or just plain tired…pause…rest,
and find something that encourages you. It can be difficult to focus on success
with work, school, or anything else, when situations are less than ideal. Below
are three scriptures that encourage success.
·
“Commit
your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established.” – Proverbs 16:3 ESV
·
“Delight
yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.” – Psalm
37:4 ESV
·
“I
can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” – Philippians 4:13 ESV
Each day
build time into your schedule to pause, rest, meditate. Think about the
direction you want your life to take, pray about it. Believe it and you will
achieve it.
Do not give
up. Don’t Quit
