“Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary. So then, while we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, and especially to those who are of the household of the faith.” (Galatians 6:9-10 NASB1995)

When God first called me 21 years ago to write down what he was teaching me each day from my times spent with him in his word, he also called me to post these writings on the internet for other people to read. Now I had never done anything like that before, so I went searching for places on the internet where I could do that. Some of those sites were receptive to me, and some of them were not. Some of the people were receptive to me, and others were not. But I persevered. And some of those sites I did have to leave.

Then the Lord led me to create my first blog, and I lasted about three months on there before I gave up on that one, because I was getting no responses, and so I thought no one was reading. But two years later, almost to the date, he had me back on there writing, and I am still posting on that blog every day, now for about 16 years. And I still get hardly any responses, but I do know that people are reading these posts, and that encourages me.

Then, two years later he had me begin another blog, which was not intentional on my part, but which just fell in that direction. But it was intentional on God’s part. And, again, I was getting no responses. But this one lady, Hazel, put a “like” on just about every post, so every day I would thank the Lord for Hazel, even if she was the only one reading my posts and giving a response. Just knowing that someone was reading encouraged me.

So, why am I telling you all this? Because sometimes we can lose heart when we don’t see how God is working visibly before our eyes. After 21 years of posting these writings on the internet I still do not get many responses, but I can see that people are reading, at least I can in some cases, though not in all, and that encourages me. But should that be necessary for me to obey God? No! I have to write even if I am not aware at all if anyone is reading what the Lord gives me to write and to post.

And I have to trust the Lord that where he calls, he will provide, and he is working where I cannot see him working, and that is okay. My job is just to obey him and to do what he tells me to do, and he is the one who plants the seed and makes it grow. So I am not to lose heart when I cannot see the results, thinking that nothing is taking place, for I don’t know what God is doing. So, don’t give up just because you don’t see the results. If God has called you, obey him, do what he says, and leave the results to him.

This is what the Lord says to you:
Fear not, for I have chosen you.
I have summoned you by your name.
You are mine. I died, you to save.

When you go through your trials, so deep,
I will be with you; you will not sink.
You are so precious always to me.
Trust in your Lord, Savior and King.

This is what the Lord says to you:
He who gave salvation to you;
Who delivered you from your sin;
Takes your burdens now upon Him:

Forget the former things of your life.
Give of your heart not now up to strife.
See all the new things I have for you.
Walk in vict’ry. Trust in what’s true.

This is what the Lord says to you:
He who made you; who will help you:
Do not fear what humans may do.
Walk in freedom. Follow what’s true.

Drink of my Spirit given for you.
Trust in my mercy, for I love you.
I have a plan for all of your life.
Follow my ways. Do what is right.
