Why would you think your spiritual life is different from your physical life? To be healthy, spiritually and physically, takes discipline, faithfulness, and endurance.

“It’s a marathon, not a sprint.” Good advice to hear when you’re struggling with sticking to a discipline or trying to push through a difficult task. It’s even good advice for relationships. Usually, we humans give up too soon! And when we do, we usually regret it later. Or, sometimes, we stay too long, and we typically regret that later as well!

So, what’s the answer? The Faith invites us to the lifestyle of repentance and endurance.
