To win is not getting the likely
the expected. Victory never comes easily because it is only conquered facing tribulation and during or after many
trials. Jesus is victorious so. He did not go out before the cross but flashed!
So we must be like Him and persevere. We are maimed athletes! We will continue
asking for strength to complete the race in faith and sowing hope and joy. This will allow us to win.
"...
You now indeed have sorrow; but I will see you again, and your heart shall
rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you ... I left the Father and came
into the world; again, I leave the world and go to the Father ... I have spoken
unto you, that in me ye might have peace; . in the world ye shall have
tribulation, but be of good cheer; I had overcome the world " John
16: 20-33
