Let us consider, 'Persevering in Prayer.', the meaning of persevering is, continuing on in a course of action even though it is difficult. Sir Harry Lauder wrote a song after the death of his son in the 1st world war,here are some of the words,
Keep right on to the end of the road,
Keep right on to the end,
Tho the way be long,let your heart be strong.
Keep right on round the bend,
Tho your tired and weary, still journey on,
Till you come to your happy abode.'
In a way that's the challenge of the Christian life,going on,sadly not all do , some have fallen by the wayside.That which will enable us to go on, is prayer,it is vital that we persevere in prayer in the good times and the bad times,Jesus knew how hard that would be for us,the way can be hard,but the way also can be soft,and we neglect prayer,so gradually we stop praying,we think that we don't need Him.If only we would realise how much we need Him ,and how vital it is to persevere in prayer.
