Greetings to all members of the #steemchurch community. I wish you all a happy Sunday and hope we all are pushing through life.

Today, I was inspired to write about how easy it is for us to loose sight on our price or whatever our focus is in life when we are down. In life, it is often expected that things do not necessarily go our way, but when that happens what do we do?

Most of us have been beaten down terribly by life and as such either resign to take the path of least resistance or just loose interest in life and things surrounding them in general. This is usually a very trying time for us as individuals, if ever you have found yourself in this situation, you will understand that at such moments of life, you have to keep on doing what you've always done. No matter how hard it may seem, keep your principles straight and do not let the moment define you.

For as is commonly said, Our principles are tested when we are at our lowest and as such we must push through that stage and not succumb to the path of least resistance else, how then are we to come out strong and say we triumphed.

Please do not misunderstand me in thinking that all through life, we'll have things going rosy and smooth for us. The truth is that, it won't. There are bound to be ups and downs but we must stand strong in our lowest. That's the point that I am trying to drive. We must not give up, we must strive to always stand up stronger no matter the situation.

The book of second chronicles tells us not to give up and be strong as the book of Isaiah which also tells us that God is with us through thick and thin. Through our trials and triumphs, He's with us. Through our ups and downs, He's with us. He's with us through and through and we must always remember that.

What an inspiring one from you! Been a while I come across your post on SteemChurch. Hope you're good?

It's bad for an athlete to give up when (s)he is already close to the finish line. The distance from the starting point to where we are now is already long. Thanks for sharing.

It is true we have to be ready for the tough times and struggles in our life. Our greatest goal in both the difficult and easier times is to grow in the character of Christ.
Great post!
