Today is my wife's birthday. She received one of her favorite lunches today. She also received a gift from Anneka and me. She has been receiving all sorts of birthday wishes online too.
So what is the one thing about her that I love? Let's be clear, there are A LOT of things I love about her, but this one impresses me.
She never quits. Her tenacity to find a solution and see something through amazes me.
- When her health took a turn for the worse, she found a way out that added years to her life.
- When the doctors said she couldn't have children, she never gave up.
- When money is an issue, she finds a way to earn it.
- She will help you, guide you and share your life experience with you.
Why am I pointing this out to you? Because you need tenacity too. Without it, you will never achieve your dreams. Every dream comes with a challenge. It is those challenges that tempt you to accept excuses and abandon your dreams. Later in life, you then suffer from the, "I wish" syndrome. You've heard it before. "I wish I would have - got married - finished college - pursued my life's dream - (fill in the blank here).
Well, good news. It isn't too late. Tenacity may have to get creative, but your dreams are still out there. Don't give up.
PRAY: Dear Jesus, give me the strength to never give up. AMEN.
