It is through "...faith and patience" that we receive the blessings. This patience is a God-sustained perseverance. In this teaching, you'll find that the end of your patience is also the end of your faith. It's not just the intense effort for a moment that wins the race, but a determined consistency and refusal to give up that gets results. Learning to let "patience have her perfect work" will cause you to end up "always triumphing" and "wanting nothing" every time.
