Perseverance

From today's Bible study:

"...Solomon succeeded because he persevered. He spent seven years building the temple (1 Kings 6:38), never wavering from his goal. Never give up when God is "building" with you. Though it may seem your work is moving at a crawl, keep doing what you know to do.

Purpose, plan, and persevere, and the Lord will build your house!"

This holds so many different meanings for us.  The obvious literal meaning as well as some, underlying, personal meanings.  And it was a great encouragement today. 

If you are looking for a good daily Bible study that's quick yet meaningful, I recommend the One Year Bible study that our church is currently studying together.  Read along with the One Year Bible via Church of the Highlands.
