Patience and Perseverance

Early on when I was younger, my teachers and family friends tried to teach me great life lessons. Of course one of their most important teachings was Patience and Perseverance. Now when I first learned this, I really didn't take it to heart because I simply did not have the troubles that I have today. The other day I heard it during mass and I really took it to heart even though every week my parents and family friends actually still say that to me. Patience truly is a theological virtue but we need perseverance if we want to get anywhere. So brothers and sisters, the lesson is simply Patience and Perseverance can take you almost anywhere!
