PATIENCE IS A QUALITY YOU ADMIRE IN THE DRIVER BEHIND YOU AND SCORN IN THE ONE AHEAD.

PATIENCE IS A QUALITY YOU ADMIRE IN THE DRIVER BEHIND YOU AND SCORN IN THE ONE AHEAD.

 

Patience—the ability to wait; endurance, staying power, fortitude; ability to bear prolonged hardship, pain, or exertion; stamina; the survival or persistence of something despite the ravages of time; lack of complaint

It is not how you start but how you end.  The Bible says that the end of a thing is better than the beginning of a thing (Eccl. 7:8-9). 

Our days are identical suitcases—all the same sizes–but some people can pack more into them than others.  While accepting the path of God for your life, whether it seems rough or smooth, remember that God is at work in you.

Although learning to trust in times of adversity has its difficulties, facing unexpected changes opens the opportunity for growth.  Hebrews 6:12 encourages us to be followers of them who through faith and patience inherited the promises of God.

 

We are called to run this race with an unruffled and vigorous  persistence.  The appointed course of the race is set and we must strip ourselves of every unnecessary weight and the sins that so easily entangles us.

Remember, the race is not for the swift nor the battle for the strong but for those who endures to the end.   

Tilt your heart towards the SON!
