Most of us are great starters, but lousy finishers. The Bible specifically addresses the importance of finishing strong. Eccl. 7:8 "The end of a matter is better than its beginning,
and patience is better than pride."
Although it can be tiring and possibly frustrating to 'hang in there' until the end, good things will come about when you acknowledge God EVERY step of the way. So often, we will complete 75% of our project and give up towards the end because that is the easier thing to do. Persevering often feels DRAINING, and it is at times. We feel like we are at the end of our rope and just cannot handle anymore. But the human body and mind is capable of so much... even when it feels as if we are done.
