In light of a busy schedule, I will only be able to write briefly in this post. I would like to share a verse which has been a blessing in these busy times…

“And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.” Galatians 6:9

Perseverance has been well defined as “courage stretched out” or “to persist in a state, enterprise, or undertaking in spite of counter-influences, opposition, or discouragement” (Merriam Webster Dictionary). Although God sometimes delivers his people from difficult, overwhelming, or even painful circumstances, he more often calls us to a courageous and enduring faithfulness in the midst of trials.

It’s in these times we ought to continue. We ought to be relying and asking for the grace God provides in these situations of suffering and even times of peace where we may be tempted to be weary of doing good. We overcome these times with obedience to God’s Word, a confident expectation in God’s promises, and constant reliance on God’s grace. For God will bring blessing in His appointed time!
