Galatians 6:9 (NRSV)
“So let us not grow weary in doing what is right, for we will reap at harvest-time, if we do not give up.”
Wednesday is an interesting day. Monday is the day we’re recovering from the weekend. Tuesday is the day we’re trying to convince ourselves Monday is over. Wednesday is the middle of the week—and sometimes it feels like the week has been going on for about three months!
By Wednesday, our enthusiasm can begin to fade. The coffee may still be working, but the motivation has already called in sick.
And that’s why Galatians 6:9 is such an important word for the middle of the week: “Do not grow weary.”
Paul doesn’t say we will never get tired. He reminds us that tiredness doesn’t mean we should quit.
There are times when we pray and wonder if anything is happening. We serve, but nobody seems to notice. We encourage someone, but they don’t seem to change. We try to do what is right, but the results seem painfully slow.
Wednesday reminds us that we are often living in the middle. We’re not where we started—but we’re not at our destination yet. We need to keep going.
And God sees our faithfulness even when we don’t see the results.
When strength feels low, depend on His. When the outcome is unclear, trust His timing. The harvest belongs to God. Our part is to remain faithful.
So, it’s Wednesday. Take a breath. Say a prayer. Trust God with what you cannot yet see.
He isn’t finished yet!
