Endurance…

 

[Graphic of a sign]



 “Endure hardship as discipline…”
 —Hebrews 12:7a

When soldiers train, they must endure hardship in order to prepare themselves for the rigors of battle. As soldiers of Christ who must prepare for spiritual battles, the hardships we endure toughen us so we can remain strong and victorious.

Yielding our will to God’s will and allowing the Holy Spirit to toughen us through our trials builds holy discipline into our lives. Take note of these words from Hebrews 12:7:

Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as his children. For what children are not disciplined by their father?
