Suffering and hope

And not only that, but we also boast in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not disappoint us, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit that has been given to us. Romans 5:3-5


A bit better today. Something to be said for Our Blessed Mother and the strength of the Cross. The hardest part to remember is that in our weakness, He is strong. No matter how many times I pray for wisdom on this, it is hard to find that strength. Thank you to those who prayed. God bless.

I feel your pain. I know suffering also. It sometimes can be such a hard battle. But worth the fight. Hang in there....Heaven is bittersweet my friend..bittersweet.

Thank you and yes, I know. As hard as it may be. Awareness helps both in prayer and outlook.
