And not only that, but we also rejoice in our afflictions, because we know that affliction produces endurance, endurance produces proven character, and proven character produces hope. This hope does not disappoint, because God’s love has been poured out in our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us. {Romans 5:3-5}
Just a quick thought today. Properly dealt with, affliction becomes exercise for the soul. If I had chosen to rejoice in all things from the beginning, my soul wouldn’t be so out of shape now.
