Galatians 6:9 (NASB) "Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary."I never would have thought it would have lasted that long! While volunteering to help at a local charity, I found myself there a lot longer than I had originally planned! Today we read about not losing heart and in due time we will reap IF we don't grow weary! Volunteering can sometimes get us into situations that will try our patience. I had agreed to help clean out a building that was going to be used to house single moms. At first it appeared that it would have only been one day of work but by the end of the week I realized I was mistaken. During this Covid-19 crisis, it may seem to be lasting a lot longer than we may have thought but if we hold steady, and keep on keeping on, we will, in due season, get through it. As the weekend came to a close, the job was finally done and a few weeks later I stopped by to see how things were going. The smiles on the faces of those single moms made the long week all worth it! Don't lose heart, but keep Christ first and we will get through this together/apart! peace, tom
