â Today's Promise: "Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart." Hebrews 12:1- 3

Dear brides, this lesson ["When Do I Give Up?"] is so encouraging, many times we want to quit, when we think we cannot stand more pain, we need to give up all of that but give it up to God!
Even the Lord wanted to give up, and He shared His feelings with Father God. He didnât quit but in that moment there was joy before Him, this way He was able to despise the shame of dying and continue with Godâs plan for salvation for His Love. I can too think for His love and the joy that is set before me I can despise any shame.
But also remember that Glory to God, He gives us far more what we even dare to ask in our wildest dreams! Thank you my Beloved for the hope and the love you have for me that you long to be gracious to me!
It is well with my soul whatever you have in store for me because I know your plans are better than mine! I am excited to see how they unfold before me!!!
I love you!!!
I never thought I would have to check the mark in these forms that a divorce has been filed. But my Beloved has filled me with His Love, I have experienced it all this week. He protected me from receiving the actual papers and He knew I didnât want to experience that, I didnât even had to see the man deliver them.
This brought thoughts of giving up, but my Beloved reminded me there is nothing to fear, that it is not the end and that He is making a new thing. With this lesson I am reminded of His love for me, of His longing to be gracious to me!
He teaches me to set joy and love before me, that He is setting it up for me to delight in His love and that He doesnât want me to quit, He wants me to rest in His plan and to fix my eyes on Him so I can put up with whatever comes along the way and to remember these words that will shoot adrenaline into my soul!
That He can do anything! Far more than I can imagine or guess or request in my wildest dreams! And it doesnât matter what I have to face with God all things are possible and I am ready to live the abundant life He has for me and my family!
My Beloved I will write these verses in my 3x5 cards to remind me Your words given to me today! Thank you that you hear me and comfort me!
Dear brides, we need to trust in His word, our Beloved is longing to be gracious to us. He is asking us to leave any burden and give it to Him so we can finish this race in His arms. He doesnât want us to suffer and we donât have to because He sets joy and love before us so we can keep going with our eyes fixed on Him!
"Now Glory to God, who by His mighty power at work within us is able to do far more than we would even dare to ask or even dream of - infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts or hopes!" Ephesians 3:20
"Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart. Hebrews 12:1- 3
