Everyone admires a person with resolve. People who are determined to reach their goal and not easily disturbed impress all of us. One difficulty in our spiritual lives is we quit. But the people who please God are those who tough it out regardless of the cost. The greatest example of sheer determination is Jesus himself. From the moment Jesus began his ministry, he was resolved to die for the sins of the world. And when the soldiers came to arrest Jesus, he offered no resistance.
