Perseverance
from Merriam Webster's dictionary website.
Definition of PERSEVERANCE
: continued effort to do or achieve something despite difficulties, failure, or opposition : the action or condition or an instance of persevering : STEADFASTNESS
Ephesians 6:18 - 20
Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
We may not always feel like pressing forward. We may not always feel like doing what is right, or doing anything at all. This is human nature, and while normal, blessing only come from not giving in to the feeling. Victory only comes through the 'continued effort' to the high calling of Jesus Christ.
