I don't know if it has happened to you, but it has happened to me, that you lose strength, courage and motivation to continue the race for salvation due to the many difficulties we are experiencing because of the crisis and the pandemic.
There are days when I wake up and everything seems empty and silent. Everything seems like a desert when you lose the strength and meaning of life.
You have to take a deep, deep breath to return to life with interest. The things that happen today leave you with your mouth open and no taste on your tongue.
Life becomes very cold and icy when we focus only on problems. We need to wake up spiritually and say: Give me strength, Lord, to go on!
Certainly, we need the bright light of God's glory to illuminate our eyes and our path to go forward in life hoping that the Lord will give us enough strength to reach the goal of our spiritual career.
Problems and difficulties weaken us. The crisis seems like a bottomless abyss and we seem to be in the darkness of that abyss. We need to cry out to God and turn our hearts to his strength.
Our help, no doubt, comes from God. Our strength is in Him. If a righteous man falls seven times, God raises him up seven times.
The Scriptures teach that our strength comes from God. Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might!
It is not about throwing in the towel and giving up before reaching the goal. It is about drawing strength from God to continue on the path of hope and salvation.
In life we will encounter thorns and darts, however, the hope of the righteous is in trusting in their God.
Don't give up even if the problems are gigantic and overwhelm you. Trust in God and He will give you the strength to be victorious at the end of the road.
