Never Give Up. Not Ever.

I think one thing that's going to stick with me from last week's lesson is that "a convert never gives up. Not ever." Granted, this was said in the context of someone who found the gospel late enough in life to appreciate it trying persistently to share the gospel with their family, but I think we can expand it. Everyone, whether they were born into the church or not, needs to experience a personal conversion to the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and, once converted to the gospel, they must never give up on trying to live it. Not ever.

Conversion is a process of eternity, and it can only be fully successful if the process never stops. If we give up on self-improvement, we will stagnate, regress, and never reach our eternal goals. We have to keep trying. We have to keep putting one foot in front of the other, every day, forever. We cannot give up. We must never give up. Not Ever.
