If you’re going through something tough right now, hear the voice of the Lord speaking. He wants you to rejoice and know that He is smoothing out the rough places in your life, revealing His glory, making all things new, and causing you to hit your stride.

Are you looking at the struggle or the Savior? When you look up, hope will replace discouragement. Faith will replace fear. Worship will replace worry. Victory will replace defeat. Not only that, but in due season, you’ll step out of the wilderness and into your promise, because you didn’t give up.

Life tries you sometimes, and situations can get so hard, you’ll want to give up. But in today’s inspiration, Dianna Hobbs assures you that if you hold on, fight on, and press on, you will see God release the kind of blessings and favor He reserves for those who are willing to fight and persevere.

Don’t let anything make you quit the race—no matter how ugly things get. Anticipate some setbacks and disappointments. Be aware that you won’t always be able to go as fast as you’d like to. Occasionally, your life may even feel like a wreck. But keep going, and you’ll be blessed!
