Persistence

Persistence in faith is vital, especially when life feels like it’s falling apart. In those moments, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed, but these are the times when holding on to our faith matters most. God never promised an easy journey, but He did promise His presence and strength to help us endure.

The Bible reminds us, "Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up" (Galatians 6:9, NIV). This encourages us to keep going, trusting God is at work even when we can’t see it. Persistence is about pressing on, believing that His timing is perfect.

When everything seems to be falling apart, cling to God’s promises. Keep praying, keep trusting, and keep moving forward. Faith isn't about having all the answers but trusting in the One who does, even when life feels uncertain.
