The Grace of Perseverance

The Grace Of Perseverance “You’ll never have anything if you give up now!” How often have we heard about the rewards of perseverance? Being determined, insistent and to have firm resolve typically has success written all over it. However, by our harsh insistence we may be breaking down the spirit of an individual. By our callous firmness we may be withholding the life that God has planned for us. By our hardhearted determination we risk being blinded and stuck in a human impractical rut. Possessing and using the gift of our “grace of perseverance” will not get us everything we want but rather will allow us to experience all that God desires for us. By our holy insistence we may be hated. By our moral firmness we might be rejected. By our upright determination we would be going against the grain. Yes, the grace of perseverance will not sit well with the evil of this world. By using our gift, God’s grace of perseverance, the world cannot ruin the way to eternal life.
