Sometimes things seem hopeless. It seems like the end of days. People can be stubborn, heartless, and egocentric. We sometimes work hard to change things, and it seems nothing works. But it isn’t our job to guess when the end of days is here! It is our job to do the work of the Lord untill the last minute possible.
I have a feeling that many of our failures as Christians are due to a lack of prayer, it is God that gives his work power, not us! Our success or failure is due to two things. One is our showing up. Nothing will ever get accomplished if we don’t make an effort to open ourselves to the desire to do the work of the Lord. The other is God’s presence. Pray without ceasing.
While success is always awesome, it is not to be our motivation for serving the Lord. We serve because he wants us to.
Study his word, do whatever you can of God’s work (even if you are house bound like me you can still pray and use the net.).
Just don’t give up! Pray, and do something! Even if you think that you have failed a seed may have been planted.
If God can work through a talking donkey, he can work through you!
