“Never give up on God because He never gives up on you.”
—Woodrow Kroll
“3 Reasons God Doesn’t Give Up On Us” By Jack Wellman:
1. He is Faithful to His Word.
In the very last letter of the Apostle Paul’s life, he wrote, “I know whom I have believed, and I am convinced that he is able to guard until that Day what has been entrusted to me” (2nd Tim 1:12) and in glorifying God, Jude wrote: “Now to him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory with great joy” (Jude 1:24). God is faithful to His Word and Paul knew that nothing at all could separate him from God (Rom 8:38-39), no, not even death.
2. You’ve been bought with a Price.
Speaking of all Christians everywhere and in all time, Paul tells us that “you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body” (1st Cor 6:20) and since “You were bought with a price; do not become bondservants of men” (1st Cor 7:23). Jesus shed His blood for us so do you think He made a mistake in saving us? No, Jesus as God is perfect in every way, so don’t give up on God because He never gave up on us, even willing to go to the cross and die for us.
3. Never give up on Him.
What does it look like when you give up on God? You stop praying, you stop reading your Bible. You stop worshiping and fellowshipping with the church, and you become isolated. That’s makes you more vulnerable to the enemy who is roaming around like a lion, seeking whom he may devour (1st Pet 5:8). There truly is safety in numbers but more than that, there’s safety under the care of the Good Shepherd Who Himself protects those of His fold. It’s not good to be outside the fold. It’s a bit dangerous out there.
Conclusion
Whenever you feel like giving up on God, think about your eternity, when you will finally see God, face to face (Rev 21:3, 22:4) and enter into the New Jerusalem. By then, Romans 8:18 will make a lot more sense, which says “For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us.”

Quote
If Jesus had to endure excruciating agony on our behalf, then what will come of those who reject their only hope, or “If the righteous is scarcely saved, what will become of the ungodly and the sinner” (1 Peter 4:18)? That is a very sobering question, and it should make us bolder witnesses for Christ because we know what awaits the lost.

Dorothy Mackaill in Safe in Hell (William A. Wellman, 1931)
Cast: Dorothy Mackaill, Donald Cook, Ralf Harolde, Morgan Wallace, John Wray, Ivan Simpson, Victor Varconi, Nina Mae McKinney, Charles Middleton, Clarence Muse, Gustav von Seyffertitz, Noble Johnson, Cecil Cunningham, George F. Marion. Screenplay: Joseph Jackson, Maude Fulton, based on a play by Houston Branch. Cinematography: Sidney Hickox. Art direction: Jack Okey. Film editing: Owen Marks. 
Seamy and salacious, Safe in Hell is sometimes cited as an example of what finally scared Hollywood into accepting the Production Code, except that you could hardly find a more conventionally moral fable than this tale of a call girl who gives up her sinful ways when her sailor comes back from sea and proposes marriage. Unfortunately, the man who done her wrong intervenes and Gilda (Dorothy Mackaill) is forced to flee to a Caribbean island populated mostly by men of the wrong sort. Still, she manages to hold on to her renewed virtue and rise to self-sacrificing heights at the end. Mackaill is terrific in the role, making me wonder why she's not well-known today. It's probably because most of her work was done in silent films and she was turning 30 when sound came in, putting her at a disadvantage against younger actresses like Bette Davis and Barbara Stanwyck when it came to landing lead roles. Director William A. Wellman had a steady hand with this kind of tough-edged melodrama, introducing touches of comedy like the crowd of lecherous barflies who live in the hotel Gilda moves into while waiting the return of Carl (Donald Cook), her sailor. When she moves into her room on the balcony at the top of the stairs, they turn around their chairs to face it, eager for whatever action may occur. They're not disappointed: Piet Van Saal (Ralf Harolde), the man she thought she killed, forcing her to flee to the island, turns up alive, and the island's lawman, its "jailer and executioner" in his words, the unsavory Mr. Bruno (Morgan Wallace), also takes an interest in her. It's a middling movie, mostly of historical interest, particularly in the appearance of two important Black actors, Clarence Muse and Nina Mae McKinney, in roles that don't call for them to kowtow too much to the whites or speak the standard dialect concocted for Black people in the movies. McKinney, best known today for her performance as Chick in King Vidor's Hallelujah (1929). gets to introduce the song "When It's Sleepy Time Down South," which became a jazz standard when Louis Armstrong popularized it. Muse, who plays a hotel porter, was one of its composers, along with Leon René and Otis René.

“The Bible talks a lot about heaven, and as believers, it’s a place that we all dream about and look forward to. Christians throughout the centuries have written about heaven – that glorious place where God lives and where one day we will join Him.” —Pastor Jack Wellman (Christianquotes.info)
Here are three quotes:
“I would not give one moment of heaven for all the joy and riches of the world, even if it lasted for thousands and thousands of years.” —Martin Luther
“For the Christian, heaven is where Jesus is. We do not need to speculate on what heaven will be like. It is enough to know that we will be forever with Him.” —William Barclay
“I have all that I need here and heaven hereafter! How much richer could anybody want to be?” —Lester Roloff
