Be Persistent

... because persistence is good. No, it's great!

As I read from my bible these days, I feel like I'm reading a bunch of totally new things that I've never read before. Maybe that comes from maturity and learning more? I don't know what it is, but it's good to realize new things. I read from the parable of the persistent widow the other day in the book of Luke (ch. 18) and what a scene it was. The widow pleaded persistently and the unjust judge gave justice. 


Although context is so important, I'm not really writing about how the widow gained justice from the judge, but more on her persistence. I can't believe I didn't realize this sooner in life, but man ... being persistent is important in all the areas of your life. It's so important in your prayer life, when you read your bible and do your devotions, when reaching out to others, or calling back for job opportunities.

I need to learn to be more persistent in all the areas of my life.
