Relentless Determination

[Brad Gardner]

I am reading a really great book now by Joyce Myers, a book I would recomend to all of you it is called "Never Give Up". She writes in the very begining " I believe God has a great pirpose for you and I urge you to not settle for less. He wants to bless you and give you a life that will thrill you,fulfill you and bring you deep joy and sweet satisfaction,but also challenge you,stretch you,frustrate you at times and even lead you to moments when you are tempeted to give up! That was just so inspring to me. It does get tough,and frustrating and challenging out here. We just always have to remember the hard road is usually the right road,if it was all easy it would be flooded and we would be stuck. No matter what it is you are trying to do the only true way to fail is to stop taking action. Doing nothing is easy right? All of us out there could just stop everything we are doing right now sit on our buts and do nothing EVERYONE no problem. and nothing would happen. Relentless determination in the face of the challenge is the key. Even if you do not make it completely to the top never quitting makes you a success either way win or lose. I have fought tooth and nail my whole life from a abusive father,watching my mother raise us on her own through relentless determination, living in the streets, to battling addictions, to battling my self all the way to living in a house with my wife, who also battled abuse and addictions, and 2 step daughters. Even to having my first little baby girl 2years ago after doctors told me and my wife I could not have kids. Sometimes things seemed impossible but I Never Gave Up, don't you give up either you can do it, one foot in front of the other, one step at a time you will see sometimes not right away but if you keep moving someday you will stop look back like I do all the time and say I did it!"
