Don’t give up
Galatians 6:9 ~ Let’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.
No supermarkets. No pizza delivery. No convenience stores. No drive-thru.
That’s what things were like when the apostle Paul wrote his letter to the churches of Galatia. During the spring they would have to work long, hard days plowing the ground and planting seeds. Then all summer they would take care of what they had planted, which involved weeding, watering, and keeping the wild animals from stealing or destroying their crops. In the fall they would harvest and store their food for the winter.
If a man and his family got tired of planting or weeding or harvesting and decided to quit, they would be in big trouble. The only way they could be assured of having something to eat that winter would be to keep going. They couldn’t run down to the grocery store for a can of creamed corn or frozen pizza. If they didn’t work hard through spring, summer, and fall, they would go hungry all winter.
It’s the same with us. Fighting temptation and making choices can be hard. It can be a pain sometimes to be the only one who’s trying to do right. That’s why Paul says, “Don’t get tired of doing what is good. Don’t get discouraged and give up, for we will reap a harvest of blessing at the appropriate time.”
No matter how hard it gets, don’t give up. No matter who makes fun of you, don’t get discouraged. No matter how tough it is, don’t get tired. Keep leaning on God. Keep asking him to help you. It may not be easy, but it will be worth it. God’s Word assures us that those who persevere will someday “reap a harvest of blessing.”
Prayer:
Dear God – We need your help from time to time. Thank you for the promises you give if we don’t give up. Help us to not give up or get discouraged, you are always with us.
In Jesus’ Name, Amen
