Where do I find the strength to keep going when I’m tempted to give up? - Endurance - TouchPoints

Where do I find the strength to keep going when I’m tempted to give up?

Galatians 6:9Let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up.

Endurance comes from keeping our thoughts on God’s promises for the future, not the problems of the moment.

Philippians 1:6I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns.

Philippians 2:12-13Dear friends, you always followed my instructions when I was with you. And now that I am away, it is even more important. Work hard to show the results of your salvation, obeying God with deep reverence and fear. For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him.

We cannot endure through our strength alone. God is at work in our lives. He gives us the strength to keep going when we are exhausted and the faith to keep believing when we are discouraged. We need to keep seeking to love him and know him more.
