Have you ever said, “I’m not going down without a fight”?

by Stephanie Richards

Have you said, “I am not going down without a fight”?

I used to say that phrase to mean that I am not giving up. 

However, I started to see a flaw in using that phrase. 

What if we change it to… 

I am not going down without a fight.

Yes, there is failure in life and business. Sometimes we don’t always succeed. It is certain that we will fall and fail miserably.

However, I have learned that if it is God’s will for me to do something, I am NOT going down. Period. I can trust that God will finish what He has started (Philippians 1:6) so I am not going to abandon ship halfway through the journey. 

I am not fighting in the direction of going down. I am fighting in the direction of going up, toward where God is calling me. It’s a battle, but I am not going down. Who's with me?

Remembering key milestones along the way is a great way to keep moving forward. That is one of the main reasons I created Esaltare Designs. Sometimes we need a tangible reminder of how far we have come. What milestone can you celebrate today?
