Don’t give up—your dreams are worth the wait. Sarah Dawn Pantalita reminds us of all the struggles that shape us, along with Rebecca Simon Finding God Every Day it shows how faith turns waiting into hope. Read now to trust God’s timing and keep moving forward.
For those of you who feel like giving up on that one dream: don’t. You have to hold on a little. Give yourself and your dream more time to come true. You have to live until that day when you will know, “I have succeeded.” You have to believe that this long period of waiting and impatience is part of the process.
You must hold on to the hope that God has the best plans for you (Jer 29:11) and everything he thinks is for your greatest good. Remember all the things you have done, all the sacrifices you have made, all the efforts you have made to achieve your dream. You have to stay focused. Don’t hesitate. Keep striving and striving to achieve your goals.
For you who feel tired of waiting for a long time and want to solve what is available: don’t do it. The waiting process is really frustrating. Every night, as you lie in bed, many questions may have come to your mind, debates about the right and wrong decisions you have made, about creating backup plans and fallback strategies, about regretting bad decisions and not following good advice from others.
I know there is chaos inside you. I know there is that voice telling you to stop chasing your dream and adjust to where you are right now. Don’t! Every bad decision, every bad decision, every painful mistake is all part of the strategy. The journey is painful. Going uphill is really tiring. But remember: all obstacles and difficulties are part of the journey, something we should accept and enjoy because that’s what makes reaching “up there” worth it.
You have to learn to see the beauty in all these tears and failures. All those difficulties will make you stronger.
Every mistake will make you wiser. And after all, when you face it all, success will be such a pleasure. However, they say never focus on your destination. Enjoy every curve, every climb, every obstacle. They will mold and make it better and better seasoned.
For those of you who feel like giving up and thinking about quitting: don’t. Giving up and giving up are not winners. You were born to do more, be greater. You were born to achieve. God created you to be a conqueror. You want to expand your horizons. God promised you a bright future. Put that desire in your heart, HOPE. And He Will See You.
Quitting is for the faint of heart. For those who lack determination and determination. Quitting is like failure. And if you want to succeed, giving up is not an option. It is NOT an option.
Never give up on something you really believe in. Never lose hope of getting what you pray for.
At this point, God’s answer may not be yes, but He knows the perfect time. And yes from Him it would be worth the wait. I believe that people stop praying because they think that God’s peace is a no. But sometimes, we have to hold on for a while because after all, it might be waiting, waiting for His perfect timing.
Waiting is painful because waiting is frustrating. You face pain because, only in the worst of circumstances, can true beauty emerge. It is only in painful events that your heart will be created pure and true, the purity of love for God and being true to trust in His plans.
“There is no oil without pressing olives
There is no wine without pressing the grapes
There is no fragrance without crushing flowers And there is no true happiness without sorrow.”

Life pushes you to bring out the best in yourself. All problems and trials will crush you so that you will release that sweet smell of success. Pains and sufferings squeeze you so that you will produce something, develop something, build your character so that you can face the biggest and most difficult challenges in front of you.
For those of you who feel like giving up and thinking about quitting: don’t. Just hold on. Hold on. God is not finished with you.
Your dream of a bright future is God’s dream for you. Your dream of a better future is at hand. Whatever your dream is, no matter how big or small, hold on to it. Keep it in your heart.
You may feel like you are very far from getting there, you are not very close to achieving it but don’t give up hope. Whatever pain and suffering you are facing right now, feel it, just feel it. It will make you stronger. No matter how deep you go, go back; and bounce back with strength.
There is this thing they call blessings-it’s hidden. When wrong turns, failures, tears, disappointments are not what they seem to be but turning points and little changes from heaven. These pains are God’s way of leading us to something better, something greater, something more wonderful, something more worthy, the fulfillment of all our heart’s desires.
For every failure, never be afraid to try again. You have many possibilities and there are unlimited possibilities. As long as you’re still breathing, you can do more and be more. As long as you don’t feel that rumbling in your chest, you have endless opportunities waiting to be seized. Don’t lose hope. Never lose hope. And never lose sight of the beauty of what lies ahead, as long as you never tire of taking chances and clinging to God’s promises, you will eventually get there.
Remember that every mistake, every wrong decision often leads us to where God wants us to be. Every pain, every tear tends to make us what he wants us to be. Let the Maker shape you. Let him shape you.
Let the process of waiting be fruitful instead of painful. See the beauty in every bump and pause. Remember: It is NOT the end. It’s just a detour, a traffic jam or a spare tire problem. He will get there eventually, in His perfect timing.
