Never Give Up

The natural tendency of many youths who are facing trying times or discouragements in their lives are to give up and slip into prayerlessness. Obviously, among other things, persecutions, failure in examination, financial disappointments, delayed answers to problems and long standing problems can bring discouragement to many youths. But through patience and strong persuasion concerning the promises of God, these discouraging situations can be turned into definite blessings (Romans 8: 28; 1Corinthians 10:13). Joseph, Daniel, Jehoshaphat, Paul, Abraham never gave up despite grave challenges they faced. Cast not away therefore your confidence which has a great recompense of reward.
