In today’s post to his blog, Jack’s Winning Words, Pastor Freed used this quote –
“I was going to quit, but I wasn’t done.” (Sent by Elizabeth R)
Freed went on to write – A cartoon shows a disheveled woman asking, “Do I work at home, or do I live at work.” Are you one of those virtual employees? If you have a strong work ethic, you know the feeling. You’re given a job. You do the job. No excuses.
Some may see this quote as a metaphor for life in general. Life can seem to be overwhelming sometimes and we may have the urge to just quit, to give up, to admit defeat in life; but we are not done. We cling to life and don’t quit because we have hope – hope for a better future.
Out of that hope comes faith. And, that faith assures us that we are no alone in whatever struggles we are facing, God is with us. That faith gives us courage and the resolve to persevere., even in the face of death.
So, today, no matter what challenges you are facing in life, renew your hope and tap into your faith. God is not done yet.
Don’t even consider quitting, you are not done yet.
Both you and I, Norm, are our own bosses. What kind of boss do you have? Mine is easy to work for. He wants me to get things done of my own….BUT to ge things done.
Sometimes my “boss” is a taskmaster and becomes way to serious and driven by things that don’t really matter that much to anyone but him. That’s when having a dog that has needs that cause breaks in the day helps.
