Revel in the Goodness!  aThis world is no friend to grace. God has given us some resources, however. As we grow in character qualities like hope, patience, repentance and joy, we ill grow in our ability to persevere. The biblical passages in these studies offer encouragement to continue in the path Christ has set forth for us. There is a clean, bright rigor to honest life before God. Burnishing the language of the Psalms, Eugene Peterson makes that life sing like a taut wire. A Long Obedience is the only path of discipleship to Jesus, and this is a message we desperately need to hear and implement today.00aBible.pPsalms, CXX-CXXXIVvMeditations.07aBible.pPsalms, CXX-CXXXIV.2fast0(OCoLC)fst01808100 4aPerseverancexBiblical teaching. 7aMeditations.2fast0(OCoLC)fst014238494 3Cover imageuhttps://covers.openlibrary.org/b/id/671699-M.jpg
