And hope confoundeth not: because the charity of God is poured forth in our hearts.
– Romans 5:5 DRB
The road can feel long, dry, cracked, and the landscape – dull and colorless.
Yet we are promised that our suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope. (Rom. 5:3-4)
Look! Hope is visible on the horizon!
Prayer
Heavenly Father, help us to lift up our eyes to the heavens and take heart.
Quote
"The world has grown old; the human race is adrift. Well, yes, if we abandon humanity to its natural course, to its fatal direction. No, if the power from on high that is preserved in the religion of Jesus and in His Church is poured out anew on all ranks of the human race and restores them to life.” //Blessed Anton Martin Slomsek (1800-1862)
Thought
In order to see the horizon, you have to keep your chin up.
