"Persistent in Prayer"
Luke 18:1-17
To persist in prayer and not give up does not mean endless repetition or painfully long prayer sessions. Constant prayer means keeping our requests continually before God as we live for him day by day, believing he will answer. When we live by faith, we are not to give up. God may delay answering, but his delays always have good reasons. As we persist in prayer, we grow in character, faith, and hope.
QUOTE OF THE DAY:
"The universal line of distinction between the strong and the weak is that one persists; the other hesitates, falters, trifles, and at last collapses or caves in." - Edwin Percy Whipple
BLACK HISTORY TRIVIA:
Congratulations to DeShawnna Davis, who was quick on the draw again with Debbie Allen. Here is today's question: she was a great lawyer, politician, and activist. She died on this day in 1996. What was her name?
