In This Life, We need Endurance

Every person is experiencing difficulty in life. It's not always happy, and it's not always sad. It's not always easy, and it's not always hard. This is what we called the season of life. And this makes life worth living because in every experience there's a lesson. We cannot just give up when things get hard. Sometimes we need to suffer well, meaning don't see hardships as a permanent burden but take it as an opportunity to learn and grow. Later on, you will congratulate yourself because you choose to endure. Be an overcomer.

Devotion The Greatest Commandment

This one, who is a law expert, tried to test J...
