Keep on Keeping On

There is a Chase commercial that I have seen countless times but for some reason it arrested my attention this morning. The ad details Chase's new quick deposit function of their mobile app. It features a man sitting in a chair, who then puts one a coat and hat as if he's going to take his check to the bank, but instead decides to make use of the Chase app. He snaps a shot of the check and sends it to Chase.

I am sure I am supposed to be impressed by this capability but that's not what rung my bell today. It was the song behind the commercial. "Keep on Keeping On"! I hear those words today. What does that mean to Keep on Keeping On?

A snail was going up an apple tree. A worm came out of the crevice of that apple tree and said to that snail, "No need going up there. There are no apples left up there." The snail said, "There'll be some when I get there." We just need to keep on keeping on, just day by day, week after week enduring.

It gave me hope for today, keep pushing, keep making it, keep preaching, my blessing may not be here yet but by the time I get to where I am going, it will be waiting on me.

Not much, but it hoped me today!
