Here is what the Bible has to say with scripture on perseverance: Praise The Lord that Jesus persevered and made what was impossible, possible on our behalf. Regardless of what we are going through, no matter how painful it might be, we must remember that Jesus has done everything for us…that He knows us…that He can sympathize with our every weakness…and that He will bring us through whatever it is we are going through today. Let’s just say my “back issue” is nothing compared to what Jesus has done. Jesus lived a perfect life, died on the cross (after being tortured), and rose again from the grave defeating death and sin in Victory. Just how much He persevered for all of us. Not only does my body have to heal and I’ll persevere through this back issue, but it made me think of just how much Jesus persevered upon my behalf. I’m sure this is pride and I have a lot of issues to deal with (that’ll be in future posts), but I found myself thinking about perseverance. Now anyone that knows me knows that I have a VERY hard time laying down and resting. It’s possible that some of you may have experienced this before (I’m with you people) and it’s possible you’ve never experienced this yet (lucky), but long story short, my lower back seized up and took me out of commission for a few days. I was just about done and near the end when I bent over to pick up something from the ground and then BAM! All of a sudden it felt like my lower back popped and I went straight to the ground, unable to move. The other day I was packing up decor…taking it down from the house, wrapping it up, putting it in boxes, and then carrying and storing it away.
