Read this part of Joyce Meyer's Never Give Up! while going home after tuition class:

While human determination is vital to never giving up, we need to remember to rely on God in every situation, never trying to "make things happen" in our own strength, but doing our part to persevere, while counting on God to bring the breakthrough we need.

hmmm..it really rings a bell in me. Brute strength is not enough, more than that..it takes leaning on God's strength, drawing from His infinite wisdom. That's what make things work.

I've been reading Heb 6 and it talks about inheriting promises of God through faith and patience.

I'm thinking: patience we do have..but FAITH?

We can choose to always cling on and yet not go anywhere. Or we can choose to hold on to God (patience, endurance) and still, trust and believe that He's taking us somewhere. :)

hmmm...patience and FAITH.
