James 1:12- Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.
Perseverance: activity maintained in spite of difficulties or steadfast and long-continued application.
I've gone through a very rough couple of months. EMC is going great and I am growing in Christ but everything outside of the church has gone wrong in some shape or form. Sometimes I want to just give up and walk away from it all but I have strength and I've promised myself and God that I wouldn't give up. The situations that are going on right at this very moment is such a faith thing. I have to fully trust in the Lord that He will provide.
Today, I went to church and Pastor Nate talked about "Patience in the Lord" and how we need to wait in the Lord, that part of being a christian is waiting on God's timing. Now a days, we as humans are so impatient. We want everything right here right now and not a second later. Patience= Faith; and we need to have faith that everything will work out fine in our lives. Things might not work out the way we wanted but we don't always do the things God wants either, do we? But God always seems to look past what we haven't done and encourages us to do the next thing that He wants us to do. Sometimes as christians, we seem to compromise with ourselves a lot and tell ourselves that it was me telling myself to do it to be nice and we blow off God. We get so confused "if it was really Gods voice." I'll admit it is sometimes hard to tell but I'm slowly learning what the difference is between my own voice and Gods voice in my head. Pretty much everything comes down to patience and faith and I'm striving to stay perseverant, no matter what may come!!!
