Shaping the Future

Jesus leads us into a place of radical grace where we are able to celebrate the hope of experiencing God’s glory.

And that’s not all. We also celebrate in seasons of suffering because we know that when we suffer we develop endurance, which shapes our characters.

When our characters are refined, we learn what it means to hope and anticipate God’s goodness.

And hope will never fail to satisfy our deepest need because the Holy Spirit that was given to us has flooded our hearts with God’s love.

(Romans 5:2-5 The Voice)

LOVE your photo, Charis. And – I have found these words to be true. Not easy or comfortable, but true. And hope does not disappoint us….

  Thanks, Melody. It’s been a tough week for so many people I care about. Perseverance and endurance are not my favourite classes, but essential to moving on.
