Wow... It's the middle of May and I swear it's almost 2016 already. So much time has passed by, it's like I was asleep and now I'm just waking up to get started. I wonder if youve ever felt that way. It's funny, when I was younger I never quite thought about time, I just assumed I had all the time in the world, but to be young is to be UNAWARE(smile).
Well.... as I was going about my normal day, I received an influx of emails from different people, from different walks of life, and with vastly different circumstances, but they all shared one commonality. That common thread was the feeling of "GIVING UP!"
Now let me say this, they all didn't say it the same way, but they all had the same feeling of being tired, feeling alone and just tired of the day in and day out BULLCRAP!
My first instinct was to get in, and try to make it all better, because that is my natural instinct, but as I shuffled around my office, drank my tea(still getting over is COUGH) I realized that God is who they need, NOT ME. I can't help everyone, no matter how big my heart is, but I can suggest that GOD CAN AND HE WILL.
So I began to petition God, and ask that he steps in. He reminds me everyday that his people are valuable and important to him, that's why I'm on assignment in the first place to remind you of who you are. But I must admit, I am a little afraid this time, not because he can't handle the job, but simply because they must ALLOW HIM IN TO HANDLE THE JOB. You see, I am no stranger to wanting to GIVE UP ON MYSELF. I know first hand the feeling of helplessness, of trying over and over and over again, and feeling like I will never win because I FELT LIKE AN ABSOLUTE FAILURE.
Let me suggest some things to you.....giving up is NOT AN OPTION! Let me repeat, you can sit out, relax, and pull back a little but never, ever STOP. You are built to make it in the time of storms, all you have to do is put on the right gear , and protect yourself from the outside elements.
If you believe in anything outside of yourself(God) now is a good time to LIsten TO HIS WORDS. He says that he will never leave you or forsake you. I believe that personally. Don't you?
Look back over the course of your life, and see how you made it through. You are still here. You are a walking miracle. You should not be here. You should have been dead and gone by your circumstances, but YOU ARE STILL HERE.
DO NOT GIVE UP!
You have work to do, and I know that it is not over for you. I want you to go and listen to "Marvin Sapps( Gospel Singer) "NEVER SHOULD HAVE MADE IT" and let it touch your heart, let it touch your spirit, let it touch your soul. I'm praying for you right now. I'm cheering for you right now. I believe that you are here for a reason, and I will never stop believing this. I will never stop praying for you. I will never believe that you don't matter to the one who created you. You are special. Do not stop, please don't stop. You have more in you to give. Don't let your emotions get the best of you.
Stop right now And STAND UP AND FIGHT!!
Fight for your right to be ALIVE. YOU WILL NOT GIVE UP ON MY WATCH. I HAVE A JOB TO DO, AND ITS TIME TO CLOCK IN
Remember I love you, and we are in this thang together.
As always...
