Things looking a bit dark,
can’t see His light
getting tired of battling
the same old fight?
Spinning in circles,
going round and round
can’t get ahead
feeling more than down?
Can’t catch a break,
no matter what you do
feel as if the whole world
is fighting against you?
Well, you’re not alone,
others feel just like you
but as Christians we know
what we must do . . .
Look up to the heavens,
put your life in God’s hands
for Jesus is your one Friend
who truly understands.
He’s looking out for you,
believe it or not . . .
and if that’s not the truth
then our faith is for naught.
So, don’t throw in the towel,
don’t you ever give up
for this too shall pass
so, just keep looking up!

Hebrews 12:2
King James Version
“Looking unto Jesus
the author and finisher of our faith;
who for the joy that was set before him
endured the cross, despising the shame,
and is set down at the right hand
of the throne of God.”

This poem ministered to me tonight concerning some pastoral discouragements I had. We must not throw down the towel…

That blesses me so much that the Lord used this to minister to you 🙂 Throwing down the towel is NOT an option for us, though we are often tempted we are to do so! ~ Prayers for encouragement coming your way ~
