Hannah More
The martyrs to vice far exceed the martyrs to virtue, both in endurance and in number. So blinded are we to our passions, that we suffer more to insure perdition than salvation.

Book Of Common Prayer 1979
O Dieu, entends bien ma prière, ne te cache pas quand je te supplie. Sois attentif et réponds-moi. J'erre sans but, accablé d'inquiétude. Je suis troublé par ce que dit l'ennemi et par l'oppression qu'imposent les méchants. Ils font tomber le malheur sur moi et me poursuivent avec colère. L'angoisse me serre le cœur, et les terreurs de la mort tombent sur moi. Je suis pris de crainte et de tremblement, je suis submergé par l'effroi.

Let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the Author and Perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God' (Hebrews 12:1-2). Jesus was motivated to endure by anticipating the joy of His reward. No amount of hardship and struggle could deprive Him of that anticipation.

The only true conqueror who shall be crowned in the end is he who continues until war's trumpet is blown no more.... Christian, wear your shield close to your armor and cry earnestly to God, that by His Spirit you may endure to the end.
