Luke 8:15
"But as for the seed that fell on rich soil, they are the ones who, when they have heard the word, embrace it with a generous and good heart, and bear fruit through perseverance."
Perseverance, something that isn't easy, it is much easier to take the wide road. Yet this isn't what God asks of us. Look at the life of Mary and Joseph, they had to persevere.
Their journey wasn't easy, being pregnant and not married, no place to have a baby, watching others persecute your son. Can you imagine the odds they felt stacked up against them, yet they accomplished what God asked of them. Rise above your circumstances.
Dear Lord, our lives are far from perfect, help us see what we need to do today. Help us not worry about tomorrow. You are a loving and gracious God and I want you to know that I love you. Help us find peace in our lives through your Son Jesus, Amen.
This is how you persevere
God Bless and enjoy your day.
