HFH - My life would be better if....

Friday, November 07, 2008
Well, I didn't lose much this week, but I did lose. Only 0.2 pounds. But I'm OK with that. Much better than jumping up a couple of pounds again. I'm still bouncing a little bit, but smaller bounces!

The question for this week was fill in the blank. My life would be better if I had more _____________. My answer is perseverance. I'm great off the starting block, but I tend to wander off somewhere and have trouble finishing. I've mentioned in other posts that I'm working on correcting bad habits in my life. This one is very prominent on my list. I guess I need perseverance to work perseverance into my life. :)

James had this to say. "Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything." James 1:2-4 NIV

Some translations say patience instead of perseverance. And we all know about patience.
