Never give up!
Often times we fight for something, put in 120% effort, stay loyal and continue to remind ourselves it is worth it. But what happens when you continue to get rejected, you always hear no, or every time you take one step forward you get knocked back 10 steps? Do you lose hope? Do you question why? Do you lose the 🔥 in your heart to keep fighting?
Many of us will fight through some of the fires to continue along the path to accomplish what we started out fighting for. We don’t give up “easily,” but somewhere at the halfway point or just before our drive starts to decrease, we lose steam and motivation. We soon see all the negative that’s been testing us and we begin to question the worth of the end result.
God never leaves you. No matter the highs or lows the worthy or unworthy the right or wrong, He sticks with you through everything. He feels all your emotions, He hears all your thoughts and He chooses to walk beside you, carry you, and Love you through it all. That Love is selfless, unconditional, and eternal.
As humans we are so quick to lose hope, question, doubt, and convince ourselves the end result isn’t worth it. When we analyze the situation after not succeeding, we talk ourselves out of our true strength. Why? Are you not stronger than your mind? Are you not capable of conquering anything this world has to throw at you? Do you not trust God will carry you through? Stop quitting early! Stop giving up! The heartache will come. The tears will fall, and the mental confusion will spiral, but God has overcome EVERYTHING in this world and He won’t let you fall.
Next time you doubt if you’re in the right place, or if you want to keep fighting for something that has changed you as a person or altered your life, don’t give up. Your heart will guide you and show you the beauty in every season. Not all your days/seasons will be happy. Not every journey will carry you and comfort you, but it’s how you respond and listen to what you truly want that will determine your happiness.
Keep fighting no matter what has happened to you, because at the end of the day your loved ones are worth your time and love. Your career is worth you being your best even if your path takes a different turn than you anticipated. Your happiness is still in your heart waiting to shine through to bless someone else. Don’t EVER give up. The second you throw in the towel or accept it “just wasn’t meant to be,” the devil just won another battle. Don’t give him that satisfaction. You are strong. You are smart. You are loved.
Fight for what you want. When you get knocked down/rejected find the 🔥 and fight back harder, stronger, and with a fear that will make the devil cower. Nothing is impossible with God!
