If you don’t give up you win

It was Dec 2010 that I went up to KC to visit my friend Sean at IHOP. It was over a year ago and still I’m pondering the powerful words I heard there. I found some of them I wrote down on my blog here. How very powerful! And they are really meaning a lot to me right now. Holy crap I’m feeling a great deal of pain right now. It is almost unbearable. Some lines from Mysty Edwards’ words that really struck were:
You’ve only just begun and I know where you are going
And all you can see in the moment is that your hurting.
And all you can see in the moment is that your aching.
Boy that is really true…all I can see right now is my hurt and pain. All the aching and the emptiness. But all the while God is saying that He loves me and called me. If I don’t give up I win. So I will carry on. I will fight on. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. He has never left me or forsaken me. Though people have failed me he never has nor ever will. I will trust in Him.
