And even though you cannot see Him right now and cannot understand what He is doing, you know Him. Proclaim as Job did, “Though He slay me, yet will I trust Him” ( Job 13:15).įaith is not some weak and pitiful emotion, but is strong and vigorous confidence built on the fact that God is holy love. Is there something in your life for which you need perseverance right now? Maintain your intimate relationship with Jesus Christ through the perseverance of faith. God is aiming at something the saint cannot see, but our Lord continues to stretch and strain, and every once in a while the saint says, “I can’t take any more.” Yet God pays no attention He goes on stretching until His purpose is in sight, and then He lets the arrow fly. A saint’s life is in the hands of God like a bow and arrow in the hands of an archer. Perseverance means more than endurance- more than simply holding on until the end.
