Persevere. That word has insurmountable feelings accompanied with it. Don't we all want to persevere in whatever we may face on earth? I do. Christ died for me, to bring victory over EVERY intricate detail in my life. That's a reason to persevere.
I ran for ten straight minutes today. That number doesn't seem like a whole lot, but when I started I could barely run for two minutes.

As I'm continuing to read Made to Crave, I'm being challenged in my spirit. We were created with a great desire to crave. The enemy likes to use whatever he can (whatever we'll give over to him) to twist our deepest desire that craves God into anything that will detour that craving. For a lot of us, we've craved food. Delicious, sugary, salty, unhealthy food.
I am realizing that nothing will satisfy my natural craving for God, but God.
Everyday brings new struggles, but along with that an endless supply of grace.
I'm attaching a link from a challenge from the Made to Crave website that I really connected with.
