Never Give Up...

The title is just another name for perseverance...something that will always stand you in good stead as opposed to being obstinate:-)
As i write this i am listening to Jeremy Camp sing "tonight". I guess an appropriate song for a time such as this. A declaration to stop procrastinating and get the act going...to persevere in doing what is right.
In my case it means i need to stop being busy with work and getting time to not just rest but to spend with my Lord and Saviour...it is good i have a job but man, that job shall come to pass but the Lord? He reigns for ever and the cattle on a thousand hills are his...
So with Jeremy i say;

Tonight, I will take my cross Tonight, I will count this cost Tonight, I will realize to take hold of this very moment In this time, you draw me by these words You’ve spoken I feel inside, this never-ending hope I’ve placed all that I trust in knowing one day I will see You The only thing worth holding onto is holding onto me

Till next time, have a blessed time...and don't stop going ever onward.

Always!

Reconciling my need to explore and my natural curiosity with the limits that God sets before me.
Questioning everything i believe, and believing, at the same time.
Growing up is such a thorough process. It is impossible to miss even one step. You'll always be brought back to learn that which you ignored.
I find that God is only interested in the things that we do, not for themselves but for the person they make us. His interest lies solely in our person

Why Pursue Anything?

Welcome to this blog and i am glad to be able to share with whom ever chances upon this page so to speak. Perhaps we shall sharpen one another as iron sharpens iron. When i think of pursuing something, it must be that said thing is important and worth some value. Once we are convinced that something is important then we see a need to possess it in a matter of speaking.
Now talking about pursuing, one example that comes to mind is that of a lion and a zebra. The lion will not always get the zebra, but to be able to get the zebra, the lion must have a few qualities including good planning, perseverence and it helps if the lion is hungry.
I believe those same qualities come in handy if we are to pursue God. Many times when i look back over certain periods and wonder why i had lost interest in God, it is usually due to a lack of one of those three qualities.
I shall go over them later...it is also food for thought for myself.

Life goes on...when days are tough...hang in there, better days are on the way!
