Stick With It

I have a friend who’s been on a diet for a long time, and it worked for a while, but he hit a wall and it stopped working.

So, he stepped up his exercise until his muscles hurt and almost starved himself. When he climbed on the scales, he found out he hadn’t lost an ounce. He started cussing and spitting and almost gave up the diet, but he stayed with it. And now, he’s so skinny that when he turns sideways, he disappears.

Our efforts to live the Christian life are often like that, aren’t they? Sometimes we hit a wall. Just so you know, that’s normal. So, don’t give up, okay? God works in your failures as much as your successes.

I’m Steve Brown. You think about that.
