It is not in achievement but in endurance that the human soul shows its divine greatness and alliance with God.

Endurance is not just the ability to bear hard things but to turn them into glory, for final victory comes to the one who endures.

"We rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us." - Romans 5:1-5
