       Persevere

      There are many lessons that can be learnt from watching children learn to walk. Countless times they fall, cry and are hurt, but still get back up and try again. It’s a sure reminder that what we want to accomplish may not always be easy. But persevere!

       Let God lead

      When the way forward seems a bit blurred, it can be God’s way of getting you to recognise that things are changing. That’s the time to consult him as to your next move.

      Willingness – to accept whatever comes knowing you’ll come through stronger. Determination – the ability to stand firm while those around you are falling. Insight – to see the character-developing hand of God in it all.
