If you are fed up, beat up, mixed up, jacked up, worked up, you slipped up and maybe you’re ready to give up, I have a message for you. It’s really simple: Don’t quit.
The answer for the guilt, the unsettledness, that soul disquiet, can only be found by finding peace with God through the blood of Jesus’ cross and the power of new life in His resurrection!
"So, let us move forward, toward maturity, to gain a greater understanding of our knowledge of who Jesus is and the faith we have believed, do not give up!"
