Staying Power

Shawn Johnson finally won gold! Here's why: she never gave up. She never quit. She was faithful to finish what she started.
Faithfulness is being obedient to finish what you start. Too often people give up on dreams due to some frustration, fear or fatigue.


When Nehemiah and his team rebuilt the wall around Jerusalem they were ready to quit half way through the project (Neh. 4). But they remembered the Lord and were faithful to the finish.

If you feel like giving up on something or someone today - remember to be faithful. Persist to the end.

It's always too soon to quit.
