As I was meditating on my previous post, I had these scriptures come to mind. They are verses that encourage me often and I thought I’d share them with you in order to encourage you to press on even when you don’t see the fruit of your hard work.
Galatians 6:9 – “Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.”
Hebrews 12:12-13 – “So take a new grip with your tired hands and strengthen your weak knees. Mark out a straight path for your feet so that those who are weak and lame will not fall but become strong.”
The following verse reminds me daily to keep my pride down and remember that is not my own strength that allows me to be the parent that I am. I am only able to do what I do because of the Lord.
II Corinthians 3:5 – “Not that we are competent in ourselves to claim anything for ourselves, but our competence comes from God.”
Here are a few more to look up yourself and meditate on…Hebrews 11:1 and Hebrews 10:35.
THANK YOU!
I’ve been realizing how much I need the Word in the forefront of my mind…all the time. I even taught that last night at small group. I felt kind of stupid because I needed to learn it as well.
that Galatians one…I think that sums up Josh and my relationship.
