Don't give up.( 1 Samuel 30 v 1 - 20 )

' Giving up', is that the way you feel sometimes?, well you are not on your own, I think of the great prophet Elijah, he felt like giving up, he wanted  to die. This is what he said, '' I have had enough ,Lord'', is that the  way you feel?. One thing after another, you tried so hard, tried everything, could  be you are a minister, could  be you are business person, could be you are a parent ,could  be your marriage is failing. Whatever it may be , you feel like Elijah, you have had enough. I remember a dear brother ,he and his wife ran a Christian bookshop ,bills had to to be paid, they had done everything they could to make a go of the business, they were at their wits end. Someone gave them a word that was spoken to Moses, when things were difficult ,we read about it in Exodus 6 v1, Then the Lord said to Moses Now you will see what I will do''. So you have come to the end of yourself, good, now you will see what God can do, have faith in Him who delights to help the helpless, and the hopeless, 

                                                     The Lord says.

                                       Call on me in the day of trouble;

                                       I will deliver you'  ( Psalm 50 v 15)
