And some days the bear gets you.&#8221;&nbsp;#Blog]]></title><type><![CDATA[link]]></type><html><![CDATA[<p>Have you ever taken a short cut, only to realize that it wasn&#8217;t really the best option after all? We thought we were really getting ahead, saving time, multi-tasking to the max&#8230;when all we were really doing was cheating ourselves.</p>
<p>1 Corinthians 15:58 says, &#8220;Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.&#8221;</p>
<p>Sometimes we do get weary in well doing. We ALL do. It doesn&#8217;t matter if your neighbor looks like he never breaks a sweat. We all have difficult days. No one escapes them. But we have this promise:</p>
<p>Galatians 6:9, &#8220;And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart. &#8221;</p>
<p>Stay the course. Don&#8217;t give up. When giving up looks good (and there are times in everyone&#8217;s life that it does), take a break, get back up and hit it harder than ever.</p>
<p>The things in this life that are most worthwhile are the most difficult to obtain. The road of life that we travel is filled with challenge, tragedy, heartbreak&#8230;.and ultimately triumph, if we faint not.</p>
<p>I have head this saying once: &#8220;Some days you get the bear. And some days the bear gets you.&#8221;</p>
<p>If today is the bear&#8217;s day, don&#8217;t admit defeat. Tomorrow WILL be better. The challenges we face can improve us or crush us&#8230;and the choice is ours alone. </p>
<p>Which will you choose today?</p>
<p>Happy Monday Friends,</p>
