A call to persevere

Again, a great way to memorise the scripture: post it! Hehe. The Word of God is amazing and wonderful:

"Remember those earlier days after you had recieved the light, when you stood on your ground in a great contest in the face of suffering. Sometimes, you were publicly exposed to insult and persecution; other times you stood side by side with who were so treated. You symphatized with those who are in prison and joyfully accepted the confiscation of your property because you knew that you yourself had better and lasting possessions. So do not throw away your confidence, it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God you will recieve what he has promised. For in just a very short while,

He who is coming will come and will not delay,
But my righteous one will live by faith
and If he shrinks back
I will not be pleased with him

But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who believe and are saved." (Hebrews 10:32-39)
