Paul says that this faith is a fight. That's we are to persevere, and hope and to endure. Just like with anything actually. We stay in school amidst the feelings to wanna drop out, disagreements with teachers, tedious homework and assignments, hard tests; but we don't drop out because we have a goal in mind. To reach that prize of a diploma. The tests, quizzes & exams come to show us where we stand academically & they determine whether we fail or go on to the next level. And that determination is based on US. So lets study to be prepared for the test instead of crying of how hard it is and hating the teacher who administered it knowing full well that tests, quizzes & exams were ALREADY EXPECTED. We persevere through difficult times for a diploma that's perishable, so how much more should we strive to attain the high prize of glory with Jesus the Christ? #1cor925 #phil314 #holdstrong
