Hope...

Romans 5:2-4
2And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. 3Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; 4perseverance, character; and character, hope.

My friend Wendy, passed me in the hallway last week at work and told me to look up this passage in the Bible... I have read it every day since. I find comfort and "hope" in these few simple lines.
