In English, endurance sounds heroic. Like pushing harder and never slowing down. But the Greek word makrothymia means long-tempered. Literally, slow to boil. It describes someone who has learned to live with tension. Without exploding. Without quitting. This matters when life hasn’t improved, just continued. When endurance feels boring instead of brave. Scripture honors this kind of endurance quietly. Not because it looks strong, but because it lasts. Makrothymia says endurance doesn’t need applause to be real. #BibleStudy #GreekWord #Endurance #LongFaith #ChristianLife
