Stay At It!

One of my favorite verses is found in Galatians 6:9.
 "Be not weary in well doing, for in due season we will reap if we faint not." 

 With the month of April quickly approaching, my New Years resolutions from January seem like a distant memory. Can anyone relate?! Many times in life, we have so many good intentions to make sustained change in our life and live in a certain way. More time in God's word, more time in prayer, more time with our family, etc. However, life happens. Schedules, jobs and activities can quickly take over our time and cause us to forget all the good intentions and changes we wanted to make. For me, it can be things like more dinners around the table with my family, more time spent in prayer daily, or less time on my devices so I can have more quality time with my family. Whatever it may be, don't lose sight of those things God has shown you and told you to do. God has spoken to me many times over in the past year telling me to put my iphone, ipad and laptop down more often so I can use my time better. However, I can quickly become lazy after a long day and forget what God has revealed to me in the most intimate of times. Whatever the circumstance may be for you, my prayer is that you will meditate on this verse and be reminded not to be weary, not to get discouraged but to stay at it! Remember, it is work to persevere and live intentionally. In due season ladies, we will reap the rewards of living a life of intentionality and making those wise choices. Whatever God has been telling you to do, stay strong and stay at it!

Hebrews 12:1-2
And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus.
