Tenacity

A few weeks ago in our Unstuck series at Verve we talked about the importance of tenacity. 

Well, I’m currently reading through the book of Romans in my personal Bible study and I noticed something in Romans 2:5-7.  Verse 5 describes people who are absolutely stubborn about living against God and not doing what He wants.  Verse 7 describes people who are absolutely persistent about living for God and doing the good He wants.

What’s interesting to me is that either way, you have to be tenacious.  Whether you live against God or for Him, it’s gonna be a lot of work and you’re going to want to quit.

The way I figure it, if I’m gonna have tenacity, I might as well be tenacious for the One who loves me and died for me and has eternal reward waiting for me in Heaven.
