Good morning, Saints of the Most High God:

I pray this morning finds you in good health with a heart of thanksgiving and joy.

This morning, the Holy Spirit put on my heart the importance of the race we each have been given to run.  We are not all starting from the exact same place or at the exact same time. Our goal of this race is to cross the finish line.

There may be hurdles along the way. There may be several hills to climb. The race for some is very short and for others it is longer.

So we must never compare our race to anyone else’s. We are only accountable for how we ran our race. For the race is not given to the swift or the strong, but to those that endure until the end. Ecclesiastes 9:11

I encourage you today, don’t give up. Even if you are tired and feel like quitting, hold on. Call out to God. Call a spiritually mature friend or mentor like your pastor or minister, or a close friend that you know is strong in the faith. Ask for prayer and guidance. Say the Lord’s Prayer and sing your favorite Christian or Gospel song. Just don’t quit and don’t give up. Help is just a prayer away.

Be blessed and know that I love you with an Everlasting and Amazing Love.
