Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your toil is not in vain in the Lord.
1 Corinthians 15:58
Our work as Christians has purpose. We may think that because we do not see the results we want, that we should give it up and do something different. But that is not the way God works, whether you are preaching from the pulpit or in the street or handing out food to the needy or visiting the sick, your work furthers the spread of the Gospel and touches the lives of those who are outside of God's grace.
It is not always those to whom we minister who come to know Jesus, but sometimes it is people who see our work that come to understand that Christianity is ministering to all people out of love for all people.
And, as a result come to know Jesus.
So, do not grow discourage in your ministry - be steadfast and immovable.
