"You have searched me, Lord, and you know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar."
Have you ever felt that you were fighting the good fight and running the race, but you were all alone and it was as if you were doing it all for nothing? Not only there is no one to encourage you, but it seems that everyone criticizes you and thinks that you are too far gone. The good news is that God is always there for you, and He knows what nobody else knows about you. He is the One who created you, and He knows the heart and thoughts of men. When He judges, He doesn't judge according to appearance but according to His standards. Alhough no one on earth is perfect, He looks favorably on those who show sorrow for their mistakes, and then get up as soon as they fall and keep on fighting the good fight. This what makes you stand out from the rest, so don't give up. Let God finish the work He started in you, keep fighting the good fight, and finish the race.
