Good morning Ironman Prayer Coalition! It is day 5 and the weather is certainly not cooperating. I watched last night as swimmers, riders and runners got familiar with the course. The word steadfast stuck out in mind. The only thing these athletes can do is press on. Trusting in their training, their family and friends cheering them on and the knowledge deep inside themselves that repeats...I can do this. I know that this testing of your faith produces steadfastness.” Now, in verse 12 (see below), we are reminded that steadfast people inherit the crown of life on the other side of tribulation, and in this way the testing of trials are a bridge to our eternal reward. This is why we can “count it all joy.” James 1:2, 12 (NIV) 2 Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds…12 Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him.
