I promise you it is worth it. Yahweh and this Kingdom life are worth it! Whatever you may have to go through is worth it. If we are on a Kingdom path, we've probably been through enough trials and testing times to know that already, but in case you forgot...
Recently, I went through a time when I was afraid I would not be able to keep going. I was not sure I had the strength or fortitude to keep choosing the Kingdom path when the enemy was besetting me with so many opportunities to completely quit.
My ecclesia family gather around me quite a few times and helped me through that time (thank you!), but it was so very hard because I could not sense that Yahweh was with me. The worst part was that it was so hard to worship Him, not because He wasn't worthy or worship. I knew He was! I desperately wanted to worship Him, to enter His presence, but there was something blocking that.
I thought I was going to die. Literally. I knew if I quit, I would literally die. My purpose would die with me; my part in Yahweh's vision would die, too.
I also knew Yahweh was worth it and I would be ok if I could find Him again.
I did not find Him; He found me.
Not only was it worth it to keep going because I received what He promised me, but when I kept going, I remembered promises He made to me that I had forgotten, Words He whispered to my spirit at my very creation.
As we keep going, we receive much more than we think we will.
The enemy will try to kill us, try to stop us, try to get us to give up and walk away because it is such a hard path. But I ask you, what is easier, exactly? The path that leads to a place without Yahweh, that leads ultimately to death? If not our literal death, the deaths of our purpose and vision?
It is worth it. I never knew how worth it it would be. I knew just enough to keep going, but oh! There was so much more waiting for me on the other side than I ever imagined possible.
