Lockdown Day 12: Perseverance


During this lockdown, people are gonna learn about more about perseverance and patience.

Perseverance is the ability to stand up and take a step forward when everyone else sits down. It is to forge ahead when others are giving up.

Some countries are extending their lockdown, more could be extending it as well but all is in a bid to end this pandemic which is already slowing down. People resolve is really been stretch to the limit.

The lockdown is biting hard on most people, no doubt but this is the time to learn the art of perseverance for the greater good. Sometimes in life, we go through certain tough moments just so we can the blissful ones. Tough situations don't last but tough people do.

The lockdown is not going to last long, so it's important we keep persevering. Manage what you have at this moment. Learnt the art of patience in times like this. We would surely scale through this difficult moment. Life would return back to normal (though in a new way).

People get swallowed up by the pressures of life's and it's challenges mostly because they do not know how to persevere and hang in there. They find it difficult to make some difficult choices in challenging times.

The trait of perseverance doesn’t always come naturally; luckily you can develop it. This also means that you have a choice to persevere or not.

Stay Safe, Stay Persevering and Stay healthy.

Made a Way: The Story Behind The Song

Made a way is a song written and sang by award winning artist Travis Greene in the year 2015. Many people knows the song but few actually know the story behind the song. The song was actually borne out of a personal testimony of Travis Greene. According to the artist, 'Made a Way' was written during an impossible situation. His pregnant wife’s water broke at 21 weeks, when pregnancy normally takes between 37-42 weeks. The doctors said the possibility of the baby’s survival is slim to none, and it was during this period when his wife was on bed rest for two months that he wrote the song. There was nothing else for them to hold on to but faith, and the good news is that as slim as the chance was, it didn’t break because faith held it together and today their baby boy is alive.  When Jesus was on His way to heal Jairus’s daughter and news came that things had gone from bad to worse, that the girl was dead. Jesus overheard and said, "Don't be upset. Just trust me...

Song: These Walls

You are good and do good;....  - Psalm 119:68  Few months back, I came across an inspiring song by Jason David who happens to be a pastor.  He was diagnosed with cancer. After a year-long fight with cancer that claimed much of his tongue, Pastor Jason David refuses to stop singing. "These Walls" is an original worship song he wrote that became his anthem as he fought through several surgeries, chemotherapy & radiation. For someone going through challenges; financial, health, marital, academic, whatever it may be, I pray this song will bless you - no matter what walls or mountains you may face, God is greater & God is good!  Below are the lyrics of the song: Verse: You are greater than these walls I'm circling  You are stronger than these army  I see You are bigger than these mountains that I faced And I will choose only to praise You.
