Daily Encouragement For May 11:

A Lesson From Frogs

A group of frogs were traveling through the woods, and two of them fell into a deep pit. All the other frogs gathered around the pit. When they saw how deep the pit was, they told the unfortunate frogs they would never get out.

The two frogs ignored the comments and tried to jump up out of the pit. The other frogs kept telling them to stop, they were as good as dead. Finally, one of the frogs took heed to what the frogs were saying and
simply gave up. He fell down and died.

The other frog continued to jump as hard as he could. Once again, the crowd of frogs yelled at him to stop the pain and suffering and just die.

He started to jump even harder and finally made it out. But when he got out, the other frogs asked him, "Why did you continue jumping? Didn't you hear us telling you to quit." The frog explained to them that he was deaf. He thought they were Encouraging him the entire time.

People are going to try to discourage you to give up fighting, but God wants you to keep going, once you have done all you can to fight, Jesus will be there to help you get the victory.

“So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.” - 1 Corinthians 15:54-58.
