Second Wind

Hey, you, yes you, I know you are tired, because if it's not this it's that. I too felt like throwing in the towel. I mean shucks lets just be real, if you are like me, you have given God all you have, time, prayers, fasting and oh let's not forget tithes and offering and still it seems like every time you turn around something else is happening. But if you are like many it seems to only be happening to you, why not the neighbor who hasn't been to church since Pep was a pup, or the co-worker that has a story to match every one of yours but always has on something new. I know you feel like this struggle has gone on too long and you are tired. Well don't give up, as a matter of fact take a deep breath and let it out. That, that was your second wind. Now, now we can finish strong, look over there can you see it, Yes, it's there the finish is just on the other side of through so go on, let's get it. "Do you see what this means- all these pioneers who blazed the way, all these veteran cheering you on? It means we'd better get on with it. Strip down, start running-and never quit! No extra spiritual fat, no parasitic sins. Keep your eyes on Jesus, who both began and finished this race we're in. Study how we did it. Because He never lost sight of where He was headed-that exhilarating finish in and with GOD- He could put up with anything along the way; Cross,shame, whatever. And now He's there, in the place of honor right along side God. Wen you find yourselves flagging in your faith, go over that story again, item by item, that long litany of hostility He plowed through. That will shoot adrenaline into your souls!" Heb 12:1-3 (MSG) So, I know it's hard and it's been long but trust me the race is already fixed you win, if you take that second wind and keep it moving. - Blessings Shon Garner Cole -whew I got it out.
