The Power of Perserverance

"I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith" 2 Timothy 4:7

1. We must remain faithful, especially during times of hardship
- God is always there for us. No matter what we are going through, how big or small our problems are, God is ALWAYS there.
- God answers EVERY prayer. Although the answer might not always be "yes". God knows what is best for us and God knows what will fit in his master plan.
- Everything happens for a reason. God has a plan for your life. So everything in your life,every little detail, every bad thing, every good thing, has a reason.

If you are having a hard situation just remember that God is in control.





Journal:
I seem to get so caught up in life that sometimes I "forget" God is there. I seem to plave him on the "back burner" until I need him. Then I do some devotions, get on a little "Jesus high" and the next day, go right back to my same routine. I put God on the "back burner" once again. Honestly, I need to STOP. God should be number one, numero uno, the Big Cheese! He should come before friends, before boys, before music or dance or photography, and yes, even before school. He should come before that because he IS my everything. If I claim God to be my everything, my all, then why am I treating him as though he's not important. God shouldn't be JUST my "go-to" man. I shouldn't just go to him when I need him. I'm in a "relationship" with God. In order to have a relationship with him, I need to give effort. God's willing, I just need to be. I just need to put forth the effort. I need to

STOP PUTTING GOD ON THE

BACK BURNER!!!!
