“For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory” (2 Cor. 4:16-17) KJV
I read in my devotional the other morning that “Giving up often causes us to miss the best God has to offer”. I agree. A few weeks ago, many of us witnessed the dethroning of the New England Patriot’s football team to the new Super Bowl champions, the Philadelphia Eagles. While there were many amazing stories behind the scenes of the terrific season they experienced, one of the most exciting stories was how the second-string quarterback, Nick Foles, almost quit football just a few months before his historic win and Super Bowl Most Valuable Player performance.
