Don’t Go Dumpster Diving


“So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded.

You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God,

you will receive what he has promised.”

Hebrews 10:35-36






We throw away things we no longer value or items that have reached the end of their usefulness.

Have you ever lost something you did not mean to lose only to find yourself dumpster diving or digging through your garbage at home hoping against hope you could find it?

How long would you search for it?

Would you continue to look long after others told you to ‘throw in the towel’ and admit it was gone forever?

Imagine throwing away something as priceless as our confidence!

The writer of Hebrews encourages us to never do such a thing.

You see, when we marry our confidence together with perseverance there is a reward worth waiting for.

The fulfilled promises of God in our life our not to be discarded.

They are not to be cast aside when in a moment of weariness.

Hang in there despite the circumstances.

Hold fast to your confidence and do not let it slip from your grasp to the trash heap of regrets.

You will be richly rewarded if you do.

Not my words, they are a promise from God!
