I hope you don't mind a little self-indulgence today. I was running all day (literally running; literally all day) Sunday, when I recorded this video and so running was constantly on my mind. That being the case, I worked in the topic of endurance.

Endurance is slow and ugly, but God loves it. It takes no talent to endure. The English elements of the Greek word translated "endure" in the Concordant Literal New Testament are, "UNDER-REMAINING." Endurance is simply that—remaining under something. It's a thing of guts rather than skill. It sounds easy, but sometimes it's the hardest thing in the world.

Let us all endure to the end together. Our salvation doesn't depend on it, but being snatched away on our feet is going to be a great day.
