PERSEVERE
~continue in a course of action even in the face of difficulty or with little or no prospect of success.
Believe that you can and you’re halfway there. –Theodore Roosevelt, 26th President of the United States
Isaiah 53:4-6 Surely he took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows, yet we considered him stricken by God, smitten by him, and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed. We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all
(Matthew 18:11) “For the Son of Man has come to save that which was lost.



FAITHWhat is it? How do you get it?
FAITH is all around us! We use every day: when you plan for tomorrow(you have FAITH that tomorrow is coming) because you plan; simply sitting in a chair(you don’t think to check to see if the chair will hold you or slide from underneath you) because you turn and sit; and walking(putting one foot in front of the other without thinking) because you move in space without falling on your face – you conquer the art of falling without thinking. . . now that’s faith.
FAITH is the substance of things hoped for, and the evidence of things not seen. ~Hebrews 11:1 KJV
Do you have FAITH?


Life springs eternal
Do not allow your words to destroy your dream(s). Jesus says your words reveal the kind of heart you possess. “What you say flows from what is in your heart.” Luke 6:45c (NLT)
Words created the world. (Genesis 1) Words create your world, and they are a bridge to your future.
Jesus knew when to talk and when to listen, so we can learn from Him. When His truth was ignored in Pilate’s court, He was silent but when people thirsted for His truth, He spoke for hours.
