Galatians 6:9–"And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up."
O how easy it is to grow weary in doing good! But this weariness is a sufficient reason to cease in doing good. How often do we cease in writing a letter simply because our hands may feel sore, or do we easily stop comforting a friend because we may need a drink of water? No! The test of our resolve, the crucible of our convictions is the lengths we will go to protect our faith when it is under fire. Would a good gardener stop watering the seedlings because they do not sprout in day? In the same way, we must persist in doing good, understanding that it is in our persistence that our conviction is refined and proven.
But praise be to God who does not let us alone in the process of doing good though we may grow weary!
