Opening Scripture: Romans 5:3-5 (NLT)
"We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance. And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation."
"We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance. And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation."
Study:
Endurance is not passive waiting but active perseverance. God calls us to stand firm in faith even when circumstances seem unbearable. Our sister in Christ faces immense pain, yet she continues to trust God. Her endurance is not her own—it is Christ working in her.
Reflection Questions:
- What is one area where you need to grow in endurance?
- How does endurance strengthen our relationship with God?
- How can we encourage others to persevere in their faith?
Ask God to help you develop endurance and remain steadfast in faith through trials.
