Definition of Endurance

"Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart." ~Hebrews 12:1-3

I was thinking about this yesterday as a way of encouragement to press through these next few days. I am anxiously awaiting the closing of the house on Thursday afternoon and the walk through on Wednesday afternoon. This has been a good test of patience and endurance to get through all the steps of getting this far, and the steps that lie ahead of making the house my own!
