Our resolve to follow the path of Truth is best demonstrated when the going is difficult. We do not panic or despair, but carry on with a quiet determination and conviction that the way is being made open in spite of all appearances.

It would be a hopeless mission if God whimsically decided whether to help us or abandon us. But this is impossible because He is Law and cannot but abide by His own terms. There are only a few variables in every true thing that we try to achieve in life - our sincerity and persistence. The Master puts it with a twinkle in his story of a man who goes to his friend at midnight to borrow bread. The friend obliges not because he feels sorry for the man but because of the man's sheer "importunity".

Therefore know that your heavenly Father never lets you down, and proceed with utter determination in all that you need and truly desire.
