You have so much wisdom and you present it so clearly! Perseverance is a problem, and when I fail to persevere there is always that little voice that tells you not to get back to your prayer or fasting: "you ruined it" and it "will never work" which also treats these spiritual practices as though they were magic formulas instead of actions that build up strong virtue and an intimate relationship with Christ. So if you failed to persevere in prayer, repent and get back to it, like Moses put your arms back up - persevere in repentance!<br /><br />Thanks Deacon Paul!
