The art of staying the course. It embodies loyalty, faith, determination, purpose, and consistency. Remeber the verses that compares our faith to running a race you can find them at;
PSALM 19
ECCLESIASTES 9
1 CORINTHIANS 9
2 TIMOTHY 4
HEBREWS 12
As we run, we must always remember why we run and keep in mind that if we want to see change we must first become the change we want to see. Just like an athlete trains his body and mind so must we, train our bodies and minds in the faith of Jesus Christ. As knowledge set you up for that training, perseverance sets the bar for your success. Knowing why you run is very important to your success of adding perseverance to your faith.
Ask yourself why you believe and internalize it. Then verbalize it and tell others why you believe what you believe and allow them and God to work out the details. Do not conform to the world, rather believe that God can work in anyone just as He has worked in you. Tell your story of why you believe not just for others but for yourself as well. Use it as reminder to add perseverance to your faith.
Next post; Godliness...
May...
The Lord bless and keep you;
The Lord make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you;
The Lord lift up his countenance upon you,
And give you peace.
