Problems and Strength

"We can rejoice, too, when re run into problems and trials, for we know that they are good for us -- they help us learn to endure. And endurance develops strength of character in us, and character strengthens our confident expectation of salvation. And this expectation will not disappoint us!"
Romans 5: 3 - 5

It's hard to see the upside of any problem, for they're usually hard to overcome. But this passage from Romans reminds us that your character will be strengthened when you run into obstacles! The more our character is strengthened, the more we are transformed into a better version of ourselves, which is God's ultimate goal.

May the peace of the LORD, which passes all understanding, be always with you!
