This weekend was filled with a graduation as my niece graduated from Texas Tech University and also my children’s piano and voice recital. Both events showed what hard work can accomplish. When I’m in the nitty-gritty of a project, it seems like I’ll never get to the end of that long, arduous road. But watching the young children who have been learning piano, sitting in front of a keyboard five days a week for a whole year, it showed me what can be accomplished in just a few minutes a day. Pushing forward day by day is not always easy but that’s what the Bible encourages us to do when Paul tells us to run the race set before us. There’s no sitting down in a race. No time to take a break. Keep pushing forward…you will get to the end of the race and be able to look back then and see what you have accomplished with the Lord’s help.
What are you working on that is taking patience and diligence?
