List of points

There are 4 points in The Forge refer to Perseverance.

Don’t lose heart. Carry on! Carry on with that holy stubbornness which in spiritual terms is called perseverance.

Persevere along your way no matter what happens; persevere, cheerfully and optimistically, because the Lord is bent on sweeping aside all obstacles.

—Hear me well: I am quite certain that if you struggle, you will be a saint!

You have seen very clearly that you are a child of God. Even if you were never again to see it — it won’t happen! — you should continue along your way forever, out of a sense of faithfulness, without ever looking back.

Keep going forward cheerfully and trying hard, even though you are so little — nothing at all!

—When you are with Him nobody in the world can stop you. Consider, moreover, how everything is good for those who love God. Everything in this world can be put right, except death, and for us death is Life.
