A good lesson for us all. Whenever you get discouraged and are tempted to quit remember to "never give up"!
And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up. (Galatians 6:9 ESV)

UpWords · 08/19/2013  | | | Today's MP3 Don't give up! In 1952 Florence Chadwick attempted to swim the ocean waters between Catalina Island and the California shore—through foggy weather and choppy seas. After 15 hours her muscles began to cramp and her resolve weakened. She begged to be taken out of the water, but her mother riding in a boat alongside, urged her not to give up. She kept trying but grew exhausted. Aids lifted her out of the water. As they paddled a few more minutes, the mist broke. She discovered shore was less than a half mile away. She said, "All I could see was the fog. I think if I could've seen the shore, I would've made it!" Friend, don' t give up! The finish may be only strokes away. God may at this moment be lifting His hand to signal Gabriel to grab the trumpet. The shore may be closer than you think. Stay at it. Stay in the race. And don't give up! from Facing Your Giants
