I'm with you on this one Clif. It's so easy to give up but it's all a matter of perspective. My husband talks about this when he's doing his entrepreneurial pursuits.
Clif,
I agree with all these wonderful quotes, my favorite is that when each day ends if we have made some mistakes, God gives us a bright new day tomorrow, ready to start all over again.

I was just thinking about "perseverance" for my post today until it leaned more about "peace" from knowing Him. I guess the Lord is reassuring us, despite the ordeals we all go through, we must persevere for doing so, there is something beautiful that comes after that. God bless. Have a great weekend to you and sister Charlotte.
Thank you for the encouragement from those quotes. I needed especially to hear the first one. It explained something to me.
Perseverance = stubborn
