Posted in Christian Life, Photography, and Thoughts

Project 365 – #233 …but we also exult in our tribulation, knowing that the tribulation brings about perseverence; and perseverence, proven character; and proven character, hope; and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us. ~Romans 5:3-5 As I was reading my Bible today, these verses jumped out at me.  It’s not always easy to see the silver lining when we’re dealing with tribulation in our lives.  We almost fear clinging on to hope as we may, once again, be let down, but…
