Have you ever felt like throwing in the towel, ready to walk away from something you once believed was part of your purpose? Maybe you’re feeling weary, weighed down by life’s challenges, or discouraged by dreams that seem to stay out of reach. Friend, you’re not alone. Today, we’re diving deep into Biblical encouragement for when you feel like giving up—exploring what the Bible says about persevering through hard times and discovering the hope and strength God has promised us for the journey. I'm Amy Wadlington, Christian Life Coach and I am so glad you're here! In this episode of Her Unraveled Life, I share a personal story from my early days in sales—a story my dad told me that’s stuck with me for years. It’s all about finding a diamond in a jar of jelly beans, a reminder that every "no," every setback, is just one more step toward the incredible "yes" God has planned. Just like that diamond, our God-given dreams and callings require faith, grit, and perseverance. We'll talk about four reasons why so many of us struggle with discouragement and the urge to give up: Discouragement: When results don’t come as quickly as we hoped.Pride: Trusting in our abilities more than in God’s strength.Exhaustion: Burning out when we don’t set healthy boundaries.Lack of Faith: Quiet moments of doubt that make us question if God’s promises are really for us, right now. With Scripture as our guide, we explore how endurance, perseverance, and, yes, a bit of grit are essential to the Christian walk. Galatians 6:9 reminds us, “Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” God promises that every ounce of effort, every faithful step, matters. And we’re encouraged to live as if we’ve already reached our God-given goals, trusting that He is at work in every moment. Throughout the episode, we also discuss practical ways to stay motivated on the path God has set for us: Reconnecting with God through prayer,Gaining a fresh vision of our calling,And taking it one small step at a time. If you’re in a season where you feel tempted to give up, I pray this episode gives you hope and strength to keep going. Remember, God is with you every step of the way, and His promises are real—even if you have to dig through a jar of “jelly beans” to reach them. Tune in to Her Unraveled Life for this powerful reminder that when we trust God’s plan and lean into His strength, we’ll find the courage to keep going—even when the journey feels impossible.
