Apocalypse 15:1-4; Ps 98:1-3,7-9;
Luke 21:12-19

Endurance

Luke 21 continues in a similar vein today. Jesus tells of the persecution that will be endured in his name. He urges trust and assures us that the words and the wisdom we need will be received. Endurance will win out. How often have you felt like giving up on something? Then in prayer you receive the strength to endure. Looking back we can see the hand of God. Today ask God to be with you in times of difficulty, and give thanks for past graces.
