Perseverance

Father, some days are just difficult. It seems like the realization of Murphy’s Law for everything. I choose to focus on you and try to make lemons out of lemonade. I push on and serve in a way that I hope pleases you. I am thankful your Spirit encourages me to keep going, but I find myself mentally and physically depleted at times. I have no idea how I will do it all again tomorrow. Your Word tells me to fix my eyes on you in faith. When I am weak, you are strong. I want my students to persevere regardless of any discouragement. I pray they will stand firm in their endeavors, convinced that you will honor their efforts. When they feel like giving up, speak words of encouragement, reminding them there is an inheritance waiting. Make it their greatest goal to please you.

What do you feel God is calling you to persevere in right now?
