There are times when life is not so easy especially when major problems arise, and you wish that situation did not come to your life so that you don’t have to struggle but guess what, problems will always come, there will always be hardship, there will always be plateu. Life would not be exciting and challenging without them. It will not be a success if nothing is to be conquered. You will not be stretched if there is no challenge. You will not be a winner without a fight. One thing that we always think during times of trouble, when relationship is not getting better, when we think that something doesn’t work, when we think that we are not fit – to give up. And what do you get when you give up? what do you learn from it? You get nothing, you accomplish nothing, you become bitter and you become a loser. Unlike when you feel that things are not getting better and you fight against it and endure, you will be stronger and you will be a winner. Hardship, trial and tests were created so that our character may be developed and in the process we become a better person.
Romans 5: 3-5
Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us.
When you are about to give up, endure. Take few more steps, wait for a couple more minutes — you’ll never know, a breakthrough is one breath away.
