| James 1:4-5 Let PERSEVERANCE finish its work so that you may ne mature and complete, not lacking anything. If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.
When we first come to know Jesus , there are so many things we don't understand. But His plan is to grow us up in His truth, power , wisdom and grace. In EVERY difficult situation, He wants to MOVE us FORWARD in our faith. And the BEST part is, when we grow, we begin to look and act more like Him.
PERSEVERANCE is in EVERY WALK of life. Proverbs 16:3 COMMIT your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established. Our Heavenly Fathers understands our disappoints, suffering , pain,, fear and doubt. He is there to ENCOURAGE our hearts and HELP us understand that He's SUFFCIENT in ALL of our needs. When we accept this as an absolute truth in life, we can find worry, doubt, despair will stop.
NO one should worry about whether hard work will lead to succcess. Instead they simply need to work FOR Jesus and DO their BEST for Him. And Jesus WILL SEE that our plans ARE established.
PERSERVANCE is when we LEARN from our mistakes and failures. Use them as LESSONS...to do better , to do our BEST in the MIGHTY NAME OF JESUS. STAY ON COURSE....find Jesus in the midst of our storms, our brokenness..keep moving forward. Jesus KNOWS the end from the beginning....Luke 22:42 " Father, if you are willing , take this cup from me; yet NOT my will, but YOURS be done". Follow Jesus example and surrender your wishes in exchange for God's higher purposes. PERSEVERANCE , MOVING FORWARD, is modeling TRUE surrender....for it is WITH God ALL things ARE possible Mark 10:26
HAVE A VERY BLESSED PERSEVERANCE MONDAY ALL! God LOVES you! And so do I!
Father God, guide me today to do all things that will bring glory and honor to You AMEN AMEN AMEN  |
