description: (hide) John Reid, reflecting on some folk proverbs on perseverance and endurance from the Penguin Book of Proverbs, suggests that endurance, persistence, and stick-to-it-ive-ness are in short supply in today’s society. We need to learn to endure trials, learning to patiently overcome the pulls and distractions which hinder our spiritual growth. Even though we have little strength, we must hold fast, enduring the onslaughts of the enemy, in order to protect our crown.
