Scripture:    "3 Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; 4 perseverance, character; and character, hope. 5 And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us."
Romans 5: 3-5

Message:Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â The Gifts of Perseverance
Our spirits need nourishment to keep on the path when obstacles seem to pop up all around.
Taking a moment to rest, talking to a friend, breathing in the air - there are so many ways to fill your spirit. We don't have to confuse taking this time with giving up.
 Rather it is a pause. A refresh. A reset.
We can learn to persevere; to persist not only in hope and faith, but in action. Action drives us onward.
Forward is the direction. Change is life itself.
