Push Through Anyway!!!!

You know god shows us things through some of the oddest and worse times that we have. I have been sick with a sinus infection for a week and a half now. The first day of being sick I had a high fever and body aches that were so bad it made me dizzy and I wasn't able to stand up on my feet. It was a struggle to get up and go to the bathroom. I made myself get up anyway. I barely ate or drank that day and could not sleep nor could I breath very well. That night sleeping was impossible and I was very tired. The next day I had to go back to work once my fever had broke. I pushed myself to get up out of bed and to go to work and every day at work has been exhausting trying to get over this, but I knew I had to come to work. Everyday I push myself to work and get everything done that I can. Then when I feel like I cant do anymore I push myself even more and say you can do this. Why is it when it comes to living for God and doing things for god we just say I cant do it or get lazy? We always want to find an excuse as to why we cant do something for God or when we are going through something we want to give up. Just like I had to push myself through the sickness to work my job so that I can take care of my girls I should do no less when it comes to the things of God. I should give no less effort. Sure it can get hard sometimes and you have the enemy attacking you at every side, but that is when we have to press in and push through anyway. Jesus took all those beatings, was mocked and ridiculed, and hung on a cross and died for us. Why is it that we find it difficult to live for him, tell others about him, or even find it difficult to give up the things of this world for him? If he can endure that for us then we should do no less for him. When it seems as if you have no strength and you just cant give it anymore push through anyway. Your strength comes from him and push through anyway even when you don't feel like it. You will find that he has given you more strength than you realize that you have. Don't give up on him because he hasn't given up on you. He has equipped us with everything that we need and all we have to do is trust him and push through anyway. So when you find yourself wanting to give up, let temptation get the best of you, sickness coming upon you, the enemy hitting you from every side, or whatever it may be you are going through at that moment just stop and say God I know you have given me the strength to get through this help me to push through.
