What does it mean to persevere? It means to persist, continue, to keep at it. We are to keep the Faith. Keep on going, don’t give up. Run your race, start strong, persevere long, and finish strong. It means we should adhere to the principles of faith. It means we know the Word of God so that we don’t waver. If you want to reach the goal line and get the prize that has your name on it, we have to keep going. You may be thinking that it is rough, or tough, or it seems too hard. Don’t let curve balls that are thrown your way keep you from finishing the game. Don’t let the enemy sideline you from winning the game of life. God is with you, in you and for you. It is like He is running beside you, giving you strength as you run, and then your biggest cheerleader and fan from the sidelines. You have more inside of you than you know. God’s strength is in you! He won’t leave your side, and He is cheering you on. I think we can make it. We can overcome any obstacle in our way. We can run through a troop and leap over a wall as the Bible says, and make it to the finish line. We can finish strong if we persevere!
