Anyone can accomplish the easy tasks. It is the challenging task that takes courage.
Doing the right thing when everyone seems to be doing wrong.
Saying "yes" when most are saying "no".
Go left when the world turns right. Have faith when everything is hopeless.
Trust when it feels like you are abandoned.
Be bold when everyone else is in hiding.
Trust God when no one else will!
This is when the blessings come . . . when it seems like they cannot come! Go the extra mile. Take the extra step. Stay the extra hour. Put in the extra work. Get up extra early. Stay up a bit later. Finish the task!
It is what Jesus did . . . and look where we are today! He finished the work that was set out for Him. He trusted . . . He stayed the course . . . even when abandoned . . .
And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” that is, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?” (Matthew 27:46)
He finished!
So when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished!” (John 19:30)
