Oh Kitty Mittens, what a blessing your post was to me! I don't get over to this thread NEAR often enough. I know I am missing a blessing by not daily worshipping here. This was on the " Carrie" thread for prayer, posted, I believe by her mother. I gained so much from it , decided to copy it here. Hope it isn't a duplicate.

Here is a verse and a quote about perseverance: "A lack of endurance is one of the greatest causes of defeat, especially in prayer. We don't wait well. We're into microwaving; God, on the other hand, is usually into marinating."

"Stubbornness can be channeled into a righteous force called persistence. It is one of the most important spiritual attributes of the Christian life."

Charles Spurgeon said, "By perseverance the snail reached the ark."

"Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we shall reap if we do not grow weary (or lose heart)". Galatians 6:9
