A dying soldier asked a chaplain (a pastor) to write to his former Sunday school teacher: *"Tell her that I am a Christian because of what she taught me in Sunday school. She is my mother in the Lord and I pray my heavenly mansion would be near hers
He sent the message and received the following reply:
Last month, I resigned my Sunday school class for I felt my teachings had been fruitless. Then came your message. May God forgive me for my impatience and lack of faith. I will ask my pastor to let me teach again and I promise by God's grace not to quit again I nearly miss my reward. Thank you.
Dear child of God, The Holy Spirit loudly declaring to you through this post that quitters do not win and winners do not quit! In whatever you are doing at whatever your location is, never look back and refuse to grow weary. There is no overnight success anywhere. 99% of every success story is a movie and thriller on persistence. Yes, behind every real glory, there is a real and solid story, sometimes of painful waiting, labouring and tears.

Set backs do not mean is over with you! A bend on the read, is not the end of the road. Pastor E.A Adeboye of the R.C.C.G, Nigeris, once said, in those days, that if he had 100 people attend his Holy Ghost Night, he would mark it a celebration of a big breakthrough! However, today, none of His Holy Ghost Night meetings are attended by less than close to a million people. Think about that!
His secret is found in the two words "patience" and "persistence". This is a secret of achievers dead or alive world wide and your story will be the next! The school teacher resigned. She did not know she was near her glory hour. Do you know that battles are always toughest just before s breakthrough dawn! Did Jesus not heal the blind man twice? in (Mark 8:22-25)
Please keep moving! Don't wait! The end of the round is not the end of the fight. The final whistle has not been blown. And you know the real goodnews? The referee is on your side. He is your elder brother-Jesus Christ. You can never lose this game of life. An ancient proverb says: He begins to die who quit his desire midway. Don't resign your faith in God now. Never quit now!

We are never to lose faith and to keep trying until we succeed and achieve our goals.
We should have faith and keep moving forward, no matter the circumstance.

Your publication has touched my heart, many times we think that we can no longer or maybe we no longer serve for God, but we are really in a test of life and whenever I come out of the most distressing pressures and strong storms I come out with more faith and firmness, God is so wonderful that as a Father he disciplines us because he loves us. God bless you @joagawu
Thanks for your wonderful contribution @michellechristie
life is a race that is filled with ups and downs. No matter what we face on the way, we just have to keep going and focus on the crown ahead.
You are right there......"those who endure to the end shall wear the crown"
