Don’t give up

Daily Devotional Podcast. Follow along with blog post.
I know it's cliche' and I know we tend to use the phrase over and over again, yet I'm going to say it and that is, "don't give up." Don't give up on where the Lord is taking you. It's easy to stop when it seems nothing is working or nothing is happening. Yet, if you will continue on, things will happen. Yes, just think of it like this: it's similar to losing weight, as long as you continue working out and eating in a healthy manner, you will look up one day and boom, it will seem as though all that weight melted off overnight. And although it wasn't overnight in the natural, it could easily be overnight in the spirit. Yes, you see, God doesn't operate on man's schedule. Time to God is not in our time. He can change things in an instant when we rely on Him and not on what we think we see with our natural eyes. So we have to continue on, because we never know when the Lord is going to move. So, although the phrase, "don't give up" may be overused, they are still important words that should encourage us to stay faithful in what the Lord God is doing, because when God is a part of things, things work. God works it out.

So, I've come to tell you today to look forward. Don't worry about your current circumstances, don't worry about what anybody says or doesn't say. What did God say? You have to know it for yourself and when you know it within your "knower", then use that as fuel for your energy to stay with it. And watch what happens. Proverbs 4:25 says, “let your eyes look directly forward and your gaze be straight before you.” Stay focused on continuously gaining wisdom and gaining that insight from God. You're going to make it as long as you keep on doing what you're doing, which is to continue looking forward. Stay with forward motion. Don't you give up.

We can do so much more in our lives when we have momentum and movement. It’s about standing, literally and not sitting or laying around feeling sorry for ourselves. I used to do that once upon a time and that sorrowful thinking is for the birds. We don’t have to be down. We can get up and get going even if we start small. In fact, I love starting small, because it helps set a firm foundation of habits and routines. Momentum and movement will help us get and maintain a position of strength to do what God says we can do.

Protecting My Peace - Day 96 - Disciplining Ourselves for Next Level Greatness

Click to listen to today's podcast episode. When it comes to next level greatness, we have to know that applies to us, not just everyone else. Do you know what God has for you? Do you? He has GREATNESS for you. Yes, YOU -- all of us. It's about doing what you can do and only you can do. You are the only one with your DNA -- none of us. is the same Yet, even when we're feeling down, discouraged, and out, those emotions are only temporary. None of us has it all together. Sometimes I procrastinate and put things off when I know I should be doing better. Yet, I am not as diligent and disciplined as I can be sometimes. Like when it comes to working out, I delay it, because I don't like it anymore. And although I love reading the bible, I haven't been reading it as often as I should lately. Yes, I, Sharon, the Faith Coach, do not do the things I'm supposed to do when I'm supposed to do them. And that my dear friends should not come as a shock to no one. It certa

God blesses whomever he wants to bless, whenever he wants to bless them

Daily Devotional Podcast. Follow along with blog post. When I was going through a dark time -- when I had nothing -- there was a certain person who helped me sometimes. She helped me whenever she basically felt like it, but she did help, and for that I'm appreciative. But, something interesting happened after I started growing out of my despair. Something interesting started happening when I no longer needed her for anything. And something interesting happened even though I remained kind and grateful towards. The interesting thing that happened was that she started hating on me. She started treating me differently. At first I was really bothered by it, because I thought she and her husband were nice people I wanted in my life. I liked that they had a sense of compassion and were interested in helping people who were down and low. That really appealed to me, because I was raised that way; my mother was raised that way; her mother was raised that way, and it goes back to as fa
