Being a Overcomer!

Some people find that they love love exercise, others like me, not so much.  I love the concept of it and I love how I feel afterwards. 
The thing that I admire about fitness trainers or runners is their "no give up attitude".  They push on, even when their lungs want to explode and their muscles are shaking.  It's their dedication.  Their self discipline. 

Sometimes as I run my little mile and half and then my boot camp class, I want to quit.  I just hurt, I can't breathe, my muscles shake, my lungs are irritated and just want time to cough up a lung.

And then I think, I'll just quit.

But I wonder what if God gives me big stuff like.... giving up my dreams, losing my husband, or take away my health, or my family, or if we lose our jobs, or persecution for my faith.  If I can't run a mile, because I have no self discipline, no dedication, then how do I expect to "overcome" in persecution?

So I put one foot in front of the other for a little longer and sing this song in my head
"Don't Quit, Don't Give In, You are a Overcomer"
Stay in the fight, until the final round, You are NOT going under cause God is holding you right now!
Whatever it is that you may be going through,  He is not going to let it get the best of you!
