Acts
20:24 - But none of these things
move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race
with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to
the gospel of the grace of God.
It's so important to stay committed, to my responsibilities, my career, in my relationship with Edward and the Lord. It's so easy to quit when things are hard, but to stay committed until the very end and to hear God say, "Good job, my good and faithful servant," to have my future marriage with Edward beat the divorce odds and thrive and grow in love, to see my family and church family grow more in love with God and staying committed with joy to finish this race, would be worth every single trial.
You may not see what you want now, but stay true, stay faithful, stay committed and finish the race God has called you too...It's all worth it.
