KEEP TRYING

Have you thanked Him?

Have you praised Him?

Have you made it your priority to agree and cooperate with Him today?

Have you taken that deep breath and listened for what He has for you today?

1 Timothy 2:1 (The Message)

The first thing I want you to do is pray. Pray every way you know how, for everyone you know.

 

"It's Impossible," said Pride.

"It's Risky," said Experience.

"It's Pointless," said Reason.

"KEEP TRYING," whispered the Heart. (from Dani Spiller Facebook 2.12.2016)

 

Perseverance is failing 19 times and succeeding the 20th. - Julie Andrews

 

2 Thessalonians 3:5 (NLT)

May the Lord lead your HEARTS into a full UNDERSTANDING and expression OF THE love of God and the PATIENT ENDURANCE that comes from Christ.

 

In CHRIST you have what it takes to KEEP trying!

In CHRIST you have been given PATIENT ENDURANCE, PERSEVERANCE!

In CHRIST you have what it takes to KEEP going after those 19 times as you press on!

 

In CHRIST you have what it takes to eliminate PRIDE from the equation because:

…those who humble themselves will be exalted. Matthew 23:12 (NLT)

 

In CHRIST you can shed experience for FAITH!

Jesus (said) “I assure you that if you have as much faith as a grain of mustard-seed you can say to this hill, ‘Up you get and move over there!’ and it will move—you will find nothing is impossible.” – Matthew 17:20-21 (PH)

 

In CHRIST all REASON is trumped by POSSIBILITIES!

…by his power within us is able (HE IS) to do far more than we ever dare to ask or imagine—Ephesians 3:20 (PH)

 

So tune you hearts to PERSEVERANCE!

…stay alert with all perseverance – Ephesians 6:18 (AMP)

 

The point today is an obvious one.

 

Sometimes in life we are faced with situations that may have perplexed us or even defeated us once or twice before.

When faced with them pride says, "cash out!"

Experience says, "what is the point?"

Reason says, "you can’t and won’t win."

 

But GOD says trust My Heart for with My Heart, My Spirit, My direction, My guidance, My providence, My omnipotence…nothing is impossible for Me…

Luke 1:37(KJ21)

...with God nothing shall be impossible.

 

So what will you say today with that seemingly “impossible” stuff that keeps punishing you and causing you to fail?

 

Never say die is what you say!

 

Never say die.

Be stubborn. 

Be persistent. Integrity is a must. Anything worth having is worth striving for with all your might. You will never get to the point that you no longer make mistakes that you no longer fail. The next time you find yourself envying what successful people have achieved, recognize that they have probably gone through many negative experiences that you cannot see on the surface. Fail early, fail often, but always fail forward.” ― John C. Maxwell, Failing Forward

 

For remember the heart of CHRIST is beating inside of you today and that heart PERSEVERES!

 

Perseverance means more than endurance—more than simply holding on until the end. A saint’s life is in the hands of God like a bow and arrow in the hands of an archer. God is aiming at something the saint cannot see, but our Lord continues to stretch and strain, and every once in a while the saint says, “I can’t take any more.” Yet God pays no attention; He goes on stretching until His purpose is in sight, and then He lets the arrow fly. 

Entrust yourself to God’s hands.” ― Oswald Chambers (and CHRIST'S HEART!)

 

 

I love you ALL!
