Welcome to my Persevere Series. God has been teaching me that perseverance is less about how strong I am and more about how faithful He is. Through these posts, I want to encourage you to keep going, trust His timing, and remember that even small steps count. Perseverance isn’t about perfection: it’s about leaning on God’s strength in every season, whether you’re walking, crawling, or rising again.

Reflection

Don’t take someone’s showing up for granted because you don’t know what it took for them to be there. If God wasn’t in the equation, they wouldn’t have made it. Their presence isn’t just them pushing through. It’s God holding them together. It’s His strength in their weakness, His grace covering their broken places, and His love lifting them when they wanted to stay down. Every time they show up, it’s not about perfection; it’s  about perseverance through Christ.

Scripture

“But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.” — 2 Corinthians 12:9

Prayer

Father God, thank You for being our strength when we have none of our own. May our showing up always point back to Your faithfulness. In Jesus’ name, amen.
