Never Give Up

 We all face things in life. In the movie "Captain Ron," the crew run into a storm at sea. Captain Ron says,"It's just little squall. They come on you fast and they leave you fast." Some things in life are like that. They come on us fast and they leave us fast. Other things linger and can last longer than we expected. In those times of lingering stuff we have to know and remember where our help comes from. 

God will "never leave us or forsake us." (Heb.13:5)

Psalms 34 is a great chapter to read to build our trust in God during these times:

Psalms 34:1-22 NIV

[1] I will extol the Lord at all times; his praise will always be on my lips. [2] I will glory in the Lord; let the afflicted hear and rejoice. [3] Glorify the Lord with me; let us exalt his name together. [4] I sought the Lord, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears. [5] Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame. [6] This poor man called, and the Lord heard him; he saved him out of all his troubles. [7] The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him, and he delivers them. [8] Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him. [9] Fear the Lord, you his holy people, for those who fear him lack nothing. [10] The lions may grow weak and hungry, but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing. [11] Come, my children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the Lord. [12] Whoever of you loves life and desires to see many good days, [13] keep your tongue from evil and your lips from telling lies. [14] Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it. [15] The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are attentive to their cry; [16] but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil, to blot out their name from the earth. [17] The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles. [18] The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. [19] The righteous person may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from them all; [20] he protects all his bones, not one of them will be broken. [21] Evil will slay the wicked; the foes of the righteous will be condemned. [22] The Lord will rescue his servants; no one who takes refuge in him will be condemned.

This is amazing. He provides everything for us, His children. We don't have to worry or be afraid when these things come along. Our Heavenly Father will take care of it. We just have to believe help is on the way. We just have to trust God, which is having faith.

After Jesus' transfiguration, he spoke to a man who needed his son to be healed and said:

Mark 9:23b NIV

[23]...“Everything is possible for one who believes."

Whatever we face. Never give up. Pray and believe.

Pray and cry out to the Father in faith and believe He will do it and He will. He is always faithful to us. Whatever we need, He will do it. 

Never give up. Watch God deliver you from all your troubles.
