Perseverance
“She mapped out a perfect life, without failures or disappointment. But that is more of a flawed life plan than the bumpy ride God inevitably maps out for us. People who have never suffered in life have less empathy for others, little knowledge of their own shortcomings and limitations, no endurance in the face of hardship, an unrealistic expectation for life. As the NT book of Hebrews tells us, anyone God loves experiences hardship.”
