I've never been good at putting titles on anything, my English and Afrikaans teachers will attest to this. Lol ;) Uhm, I just have so much on my plate today that I felt I should share something profound I just thought of. It's related to love but nothing like the love we humans show each other... I'm sitting in the bathroom (If you are wondering what I'm doing there, use your imagination. lol) and thinking about how we as people give up so easily on EVERYTHING. I've been slapped with bad news for the past three weeks (either applicable to me or my peers) and I am beyond amazed at how my head is still on my shoulders and how I'm so gracious about all this. It's been a rough month people, do not take what I'm going through lightly. I'm just grateful to God for not giving up on me... I'm a walking panic button (my mom has a few stories behind that) and I take bad news to heart all the time. I never gave up on the concept of HOPE and how PRAYER just makes things seem less daunting at times. I just want to encourage you today not to give up on God because He hasn't given up on you. In the 21 years I've been alive, Life has shown me her best and worst traits. God's walked with me all the way, even during the times when I gave up on Him. He pulled me through and gave me a glimpse of what He's capable of... Today I stand on top of my mountain praising Him even when rain falls and thunder rumbles... All this is because I've taught myself not to give up on God. You may be going through the worst and wondering where God is. I want to remind you that he's right there with you. If you can be honest with yourself and open with Him, He'll do everything He can to not only get you through your valley but make you stronger and wiser on your journey. Remember that when you give up you cheat yourself out of a promise far greater than your obstacle.
