KEEP GOING IN THE RIGHT WAY

Life is filled with swift transition, and sometimes those changes are difficult.  We cross valleys and climb the mountains at times.  On occasions, times are difficult.  The weak seem to give up and fall by the wayside.  A wise man said, “If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small.” (Prov. 24:10.)  Catherine Clinton wrote of Harriet Tubman: “Throughout her UGRR [Underground Railroad] career, she offered the following refrain: ‘If you are tired, keep going; if you are scared, keep going; if you are hungry, keep going; if you want to taste freedom, keep going.’” (Harriet Tubman: The Road to Freedom.) The apostle Paul wrote, “Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.” (1 Cor. 15:58.) Again, he said, “And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.” (Gal. 6:9.)
