John 16:33 I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace and confidence. In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain, undaunted]! For I have overcome the world. [I have deprived it of power to harm you and have conquered it for you.] (Amplified)
Did you watch The Biggest Loser last night? Do you see Amanda get up on that scale? After a week of losing on 6 pounds, she was hoping for a big week. She lost 4 pounds. I so felt her pain. She worked hard all week, for two weeks and didn't see the results she thought she should. I was pulling for her to have a big week becuase week 1 was so light on the pound reduction. However, it wasn't meant to be.
The question is can she keep up the work despite seeing the results. Sounds a little like faith. I know for me, I have to keep working out longer and harder than I think I need to do before I see any results. Sometimes, I get more discouraged than I should and end up off track. Perhaphs, I need a team of 15 competitors around me to make sure I focus on the goal.
I'll be routing for Amanda next week and working on fighting my own case of frustration.
