Don’t quit

One of our NTM missionaries called me a few days ago.  He said, “Ruth, Don’t ever Quit!  We don’t know the answers to some of these questions, and we need you.  So don’t quit!  No matter how hard it gets. Remember our Savior  – He didn’t quit!”

We talked through his questions. Then, just before hanging up, he said, “Greet Dave for me. And tell him not to quit either!  We need him even more than you!  We would be at a loss without computers.”

We weren’t thinking of quitting, but wow, what a powerful reminder! 

The picture in this post is representative of not quitting. Fort Mantazas in St. Augustine was built in the 1740’s and manned by small companies as the first line of defense for the city.  Rugged living for those soldiers, with great isolation for long periods.  Maybe some individuals quit, but the Fort stands as a testament to all who remained faithful.
