“Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.“

‭‭Matthew‬ ‭5‬:‭17‬

Billy Graham said, “Patience includes perseverance – the ability to bear up under weariness, strain, and persecution when doing the work of the Lord.” We may face struggles while serving Him, but when we trust Him through those trials, we can claim victory in Jesus through perseverance.”

Winston Churchill Quote “Never Never Never Give Up”.

“Perseverance” is a word that I think I was born with. I watched my mother’s perseverance raising ten children by herself.  I watched as all of us persevered through this time in our life.  It wasn’t easy, but we were blessed with a mother who had faith in Jesus – she knew He would help us and He did every step of the way.  She never, never gave up, but at times I know it was very difficult for her.  Indefatigability and determination to trust and preserve in the knowledge of knowing Jesus would help her in this journey.

I also watched people persevere through sickness, relationships, and difficult times, but they never gave up – they kept their faith and trust in the promises of God.   God did not leave us without hope – ”For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through the endurance taught in the Scriptures and the encouragement they provide we might have hope.“. Romans 15:17.
