Welcome to our service today. It is great to have you here and we would love to invite you to stay after the service and join us for morning tea.
Perseverance is a vital part of the Christian walk. Life often brings challenges that test our faith and endurance. God’s Word encourages us to press on, even when the road is tough. In Galatians 6:9 Paul reminds us that perseverance leads to a harvest – both spiritually and personally, if we do not give up.
Perseverance is not about pushing through in our own strength, but about relying on God’s faithfulness. When we face trials we are invited to depend on His grace, knowing He walks with us every step of the way. Just as a runner keeps going in the final stretch, we must keep our eyes on the prize – Jesus Christ, the Author and Perfecter of our faith (Hebrews 12:2).
When you’re weary, remember that God is with you, and His power is made perfect in your weakness. Perseverance is not merely enduring, but trusting that God is using every trial to shape you more into His likeness.
Take heart today – your perseverance is not in vain. Keep pressing on, for God’s promises are true, and a great reward awaits those who endure!
Blessings,
