What keeps you going?

I know you have hard days. We all do.I have a friend who once said to me, "Cindy, the years fly by, but the days are so very long."Honey, sometimes the hours are long.  And then there are those days when just getting through the next minute feels like a miracle.So, what keeps you going? How do you make it to the next minute, and the next, and the next?For me, it's one simple promise.

So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this light momentary affliction is preparing us for an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison.  2 Corinthians 4:16-17

When the next minute seems so far away, when the affliction seems anything but light and momentary ... remember the promise of glory.  

Regardless of what you feel, rest in the greater truth that this minute is carving out something beautiful, lasting, eternal, without compare.

Breathe deep and check the clock to see if the the minute has passed. And keep going.
