DAD'S RAMBLINGS – The Process
Romans 5:3-4
"And not only that, but we also glory in tribulation, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance, and perseverance character, and character hope."
There is a process: trials + perseverance + character = hope (or faith). Too often I don't want to go through the process. I am impatient and want to skip the perseverance (sticking it out) and go right to hope. But when I do, my character does not get developed, and character is what God wants to work into the fabric of my being. That is the reason for trials. So I need to be thankful for trials because when handled correctly by not running away, I will see God working His will in my life. That produces hope and faith for the future.
TODAY'S THOUGHT: The process from trials to faith is important because it is how God works His character into my being.
Have a process day. Love you.
