Before they are Easy
And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
Galatians 6:9
Tomas Fuller once said, "All things are difficult before they are easy". If you know how to do anything well- how to play sport or a musical instrument, how to draw, sew, paint, or bake- if you taken the time to learn how to do something well, you know that this quote is true. And you probably wanted to quit learning halfway through. When you missed your 100th basket, burnt the 5th batch of cookies, and hit the millionth sour note, you wanted to quit. But when you helped lead your team to victory, served a delicious dessert, and performed a beautiful piece, you were glad you didn't.
Don't stop when it gets hard! Keep going when it gets hard and you will be rewarded for your work. If you want to do something great, be faithful in your "well doing". Practice, prepare, and "faint not".
Interesting quote.
ReplyDeleteA good short message on working hard and being perseverant.
Thank you, Megan! This so true. Most quit too soon... if they only knew that if they stuck it out, easier days would come.
