I've been praying and believing God for some major breakthroughs in
my life for quite a while. And sometimes I get tired of waiting! I get
discouraged. I start thinking that change is never going to come, that
God has forgotten about me.
But it's times like these when I need to look to the truth of the
Bible, and not trust my feelings. I found some scriptures on
perseverance, and I am trying to memorize them and say them to myself
when I start getting discouraged and impatient. If you are going through
the same struggles, I hope these Bible verses will help you persevere
and hold on while you're waiting for your breakthrough. It's coming!!
