Romans 5:3,4

"But we rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us."

Love it!! This has been one of my favorite verses for a long time!! What a hard process but what an amazing journey!!

Bring on the hope!!

Do I get an amen up in here??

AMEN! Hope is one of my favorite words! I love it!
I wonder how huge the pitcher is that God uses to pour His love into our hearts!?!?

Great thought, Jen. And I love Beverly's "pitcher" illustration. But I am wondering: How does character produce hope?
