Just want to give up

Disciple of Prayer
Every time I am in a tough situation, like my TV remote control not responding or losing an object, I get so frustrated that I just want to quit! And when I do want to quit, I get condemned by being called a "loser," or being told how I am clueless, and no one wants a wife like that. I'm not bad, I just want an out because I cannot handle tough situations! How would you feel if you felt like the whole world was against you? Wouldn't you rather want to quit? Please permit me to quit the next time I'm in a situation where I think the work is too hard or is causing me too much frustration. In Jesus' name, I pray Amen.
 
We hear the deep frustration and weariness in your heart, and we want you to know that you are not alone in these struggles. The feelings of overwhelm and the desire to quit when faced with difficulties are something many people experience, but we must remember that our strength does not come from ourselves—it comes from the Lord. The enemy loves to magnify our weaknesses and use them to discourage us, making us feel condemned and unworthy. But let us remind you of what Scripture says: *"My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness."* (2 Corinthians 12:9, WEB). When you feel weak, that is when God’s power can shine through you the most.

It is clear that the condemnation you feel—being called a "loser" or "clueless"—does not come from God. Romans 8:1 tells us, *"There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus."* If you have placed your faith in Jesus, you are *not* defined by your struggles or your moments of frustration. You are a child of God, redeemed and loved. The accusations you hear are lies from the enemy, who wants to steal your joy, kill your hope, and destroy your faith. Do not let him win. Instead, take every thought captive to obey Christ (2 Corinthians 10:5).

Now, let us address the desire to quit. Quitting may seem like the easiest way out in the moment, but it does not lead to growth or victory. The Bible encourages us to persevere: *"Let us not grow weary in doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we don’t give up."* (Galatians 6:9, WEB). Even in small frustrations—like a remote not working or losing an object—these are opportunities to practice patience, trust in God, and reliance on His strength. Every challenge is a chance to grow in character and faith. James 1:2-4 says, *"Count it all joy, my brothers, when you fall into various temptations, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. Let endurance have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing."*

We also want to gently address the fear you mentioned about no one wanting a wife who struggles with these things. First, let us remind you that marriage is not about being perfect—it is about two imperfect people committing to love, serve, and grow together in Christ. A godly husband will not expect you to have it all together; he will love you as Christ loves the church, with patience and grace (Ephesians 5:25). But more importantly, your worth is not determined by whether someone wants to marry you. Your worth is found in Christ alone. You are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14), and God has a plan for your life that is greater than any earthly relationship.

That said, if you are seeking marriage, we encourage you to focus on becoming the woman God has called you to be—one who trusts in Him, grows in patience, and walks in His strength. Proverbs 31:30 reminds us, *"Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain; but a woman who fears Yahweh, she shall be praised."* A godly spouse will value your heart for God above all else.

Lastly, let us talk about the name of Jesus. You ended your prayer with *"In Jesus’ name,"* and we praise God for that! There is power in the name of Jesus, and it is only through Him that we can approach the throne of God (Hebrews 4:16). Never forget that your access to the Father is because of Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross. If you ever feel distant from God or overwhelmed, cry out to Jesus. He is your advocate, your strength, and your peace.

Now, let us pray for you:

Heavenly Father, we lift up our sister to You right now. Lord, she is feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, and condemned by the lies of the enemy. We ask that You would surround her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Remind her that she is not a failure in Your eyes, but a beloved daughter, redeemed by the blood of Jesus. When she feels like quitting, fill her with Your strength and help her to persevere. Teach her to see every small frustration as an opportunity to trust You more and to grow in patience.

Lord, we rebuke the spirit of condemnation and frustration that has been attacking her. We declare that no weapon formed against her will prosper (Isaiah 54:17). Replace her feelings of defeat with Your victory. Help her to take every thought captive and to meditate on Your truth. When she is tempted to give up, remind her that You are with her and that You will never leave her nor forsake her (Deuteronomy 31:6).

Father, we also pray for her future. If it is Your will for her to be married, prepare her now to be a wife who honors You. Give her a heart that seeks You above all else, and let her trust in Your timing. If there are areas in her life where she needs to grow, give her the grace and strength to do so. Let her find her identity in You alone, not in the opinions of others or in her circumstances.

We thank You, Lord, that You are working all things together for her good (Romans 8:28). Give her hope and joy as she walks with You. In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
 
We hear you, dear friend, and we want you to know that you're not alone in these feelings. It's completely normal to get frustrated with tough situations, even the small ones like a TV remote not working. But remember, God is with you in every circumstance, and He wants to help you through it.

When you feel like quitting, it's important to remind yourself of the truth in God's Word. In 2 Corinthians 12:9, God tells us, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." So, instead of focusing on your weakness or the frustration, try to focus on God's strength that's available to you.

Also, remember that God doesn't condemn you. Romans 8:1 tells us, "There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus." So, when you hear those condemning thoughts, remind yourself that they're not from God. They're lies from the enemy, and you don't have to listen to them.

Instead of quitting, let's try to persevere and trust God in these situations. Galatians 6:9 encourages us, "Let us not grow weary in doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up." Even small frustrations can be opportunities to grow in patience and trust in God.

And about finding a partner, remember that your worth is not determined by whether someone wants to marry you. You are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14), and God has a plan for your life that's greater than any earthly relationship.

Let's keep trusting God, even in the small and frustrating moments. He's got this, and He's working all things together for your good (Romans 8:28).
