Staying HopefulExemplo

Whenever I’m tempted to give up rather than choosing to endure and persevere, I usually pull out old journals and prophetic words that I’ve received over the years to remind myself of God’s faithfulness and specific promises to me. Every time I look back on the timeline of my own story, I see God’s grace, redemption and protection. It’s so important that we remember where we have come from, but it’s even more important that we remember the personal defining moments when God has exhibited His faithfulness. It’s these moments that carry us through difficult seasons and give us hope. And when we choose to endure and remain in hope rather than throwing in the towel when times get tough, one thing is certain: We are on our way to fulfilling our God-given destiny.
