God blesses those who patiently endure testing and temptation. Afterward they will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.

Dear God, sometimes my "testing" season seems so long. Please give me courage to endure until the end. Help me not to bail! You said you would bless me for hanging in there - I will not give up on you or your promises. You are with me and will see me through this trial.
