"...suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not disappoint us..." Romans 5: 3-5
My dad always likes to remind me that tough times breed character. And my typical reply is "...but I've got character coming out my ears, it would be nice if things were easy once in awhile."
But what we were forgetting was the last piece, that character gives you hope, which inexplicably (or so I thought) I also have in spades. I never really understood why, as it makes no logical sense.
N.B. I'm not a big bible reader, so thanks to my HS friend Sarah H., for posting this today on FB. :)
