"Hang in there” There are few traits more important than perseverance. Most important accomplishments in life happen because of perseverance. Most "luck" occurs when we've persevered long enough for the "magical moment" to come along -- in other words, I don't believe in luck. Edison said it best: life's greatest feats, the world's greatest discoveries, his own most fantastic inventions are "1% inspiration and 99% perspiration." "Hang in there!" and see the glory of God come through in you, not because of luck, but because of God's grace, love, and Providence! Once we see God’s grace lets take the time to share it with others so they can be blessed also.
Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance.
— James 1:2-3
Dear Lord, through the friends you have sent into our life and by the power of your gift, the Holy Spirit, help us to stand up under trial and prove our character true with perseverance when under fire. Give us the faith, courage and endurance so that our life shows forth your enduring strength. In Jesus name, Amen
