It's too easy to quit

I was driving to work today and thinking about how life, a lot of times, it is too easy to quit.

I don't like my co-workers...call it quits.
I don't like the relationship...call it quits (divorce)
I don't like ....I quit.

Quit. Quit. Quit.

I don't like the idea of quitting this easy. Maybe it is a mirror of my own character. Maybe it is the fact that anyone can just walk away and call it quits.

I remember the trainings that I have gone through. Some sessions are ridiculous...five hour bike ride doing hill repeats at Hockley Valley with temperature so hot I can feel the heat coming off the pavement. Rediculous.

And as I struggle through them, there is a thought in my mind.

It is too easy to quit. Why quit? Why not just hold on and see where it will go?

I ain't a fortune teller. I can't tell the future. So why do I listen to my own mind when half of the time it is wrong anyways.

Why not, for once in my life, to let go of the fear. To truly believe. To hold on to faith and ride it through. Until the end.

When there is a storm of life brewing up ahead, I need to remind myself.

Jesus never give up on me. Why do I give up so easily on Him?
