BUT GET UP!

You’re weary

You’re tired

You’re at your wit’s end

You’re sick

You’re depressed

You’re suicidal

You’re grieving

You’re in debt

You’re in sin

You’re contemplating …

BUT GET UP!

But, a conjunction which is used to indicate the impossibility of anything other than what is being stated.

Beloved, life may be at its hardest, but get up. Not because life goes on. Get up because you need to see what’s beyond this moment. Sure, I may not know all you’re dealing with, all that’s waiting on you, nor all you’ve had to endure. However, I know this. It won’t always be like this. One day, you’re going to tell somebody about this moment. The moment you wanted to give up. The moment you thought life wasn’t worth living. The moment you almost believed the enemy. The moment that could have been your end.

And the reason you’ll be able to tell it is because you prayed, believed, fasted, trusted, faithed this thang and got up.

Get up boo. There’s greater waiting for you!

“Unless the LORD had helped me, I would soon have settled in the silence of the grave. “I cried out, “I am slipping!” but your unfailing love, O LORD, supported me. When doubts filled my mind, your comfort gave me renewed hope and cheer.” Psalm 94:17-19 NLT
