In a speech on Oct. 29, 1941, in the midst of World War II, Winston Churchill stated, "...this is the lesson: never give in, never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never—in nothing, great or small, large or petty—never give in..."

This can be very difficult for us to do, especially when it seems that we constantly face trials. However, Paul encourages us in Romans 5:3-4 with the reason for and benefits of persevering, in spite of trials: "We also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; and perseverance, character; and character, hope." God allows these trials in our lives, not to cause us hardship but to build us up and make us stronger. Our loving Father has big plans for us to actually be His children in His family. We just have to remember, no matter what, to "never give in"!
