Never Tire

Scripture: 2 Thessalonians 2 [13] And as for you, brothers, never tire of doing what is right.

Observation: It seems as though I’m always tired. Just yesterday Teri and I did an outreach at Solutions for Change. We prepared dinner and made it special for a lot of people. It was work but it felt good doing something to honor God. So many times however I won’t do something because it takes time and energy to do good.

Application: I need to remember what Jesus did for me. It took all His time and his life to do all the good He did. After he was tortured He carried a heavy cross to the top of a hill to lay it down and be nailed on it. He only stopped when He couldn’t go any further, then got up and went some more. He never gave up for me and I shouldn’t give up on Him.

Prayer: Dear Lord your servant is lazy, forgive me. Give me strength to persevere and do good in glory and honor to you.
