Do Not Stop

You have climbed a mountain. There are boulders behind. Rocks ahead.

Do not stop.

Do NOT stop.

You have given in to discouragement and self-centered pity in the past. Do not give in again.

You have a mountain to climb and others need what you are learning.

Allow me lift you over the boulders and guard your feet and knees and shins.

Climb this mountain, my love. Together we will do it.

O my Strength, to you I sing praises, for you, O God, are my refuge, the God who shows me unfailing love.
