I can endure darkness as long as, I can hope that a new sun will rise tomorrow.

“Setting unconditional love as the chief corner stone a relationship, gives strength and endurance, in building a true foundation upon which love can continue to grow.” ~ Tom Baker

Endurance and to be able to endure is the first lesson a child should learn because it's the one they will most need to know.

I'm used to pitching a lot so as far as endurance, physically I was fine; but it definitely helps to have another pitcher to give the team you're playing a different look but I don't think it put them at a disadvantage. I felt fine but things happen that way sometimes.

Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith.Because of the joy awaiting him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame. Now he is seated in the place of honor beside God’s throne. Hebrews 12-1-2 NLT
