The more you receive God's love, the more you can overcome the obstacles. Persistence is possible when you're confidence is in God. God will provide and protect. God's love drives out fear and worry. Jesus told a parable of a persistent widow, who continued to ask the unjust judge for fairness. He didn't fear God or care about her, but eventually, he said yes because he didn't want to be bothered. How much more will God answer prayers as we cry out day and night. Daniel persevered in prayer. In Babylon, he would rather die than stop praying. Paul ran the good race and fought the good fight. Resist the temptation to quit and give up. The spiritual battle is real. God is mighty. Disappointment can fuel your purpose as you stay devoted to Jesus. It is worth it. God will reward you. Faithfulness leaves no regrets.
