3Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; 4perseverance, character; and character, hope. 5And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us. Romans 5:3-5
There are those that are reading this and this is a difficult time for you. These are difficult times we are living in. But we have reason to REJOICE, for our hope is in God. Whatever we go through is not in vain, but as Paul states in the above scriptures we are being built up. God is developing our character and hope.
So will things get better? Of course they will because hope does not disappoint. God will not disappoint us, He will deliver us and we will experience the victory. He takes from faith to faith and Glory to Glory. Whatever you are going through God is just causing you to be stronger, to persevere, and causing you to be more like Christ. We fellowship with Christ in our sufferings, for even Christ suffered, was crucified and rose again. You will rise again and experience the victory.
