A recent email from our archive:
Good evening,
It’s Saturday evening here in the UK, we are experiencing Storm Austin at the moment here in the South West England, high winds and rain, we offer prayers to anyone experiencing damage and worry at this time. 🙏
It is the 25th October, and the weeks are flying past, it seems just yesterday I was writing to you with last week’s email, and next Sunday is the 1st November
This week I am reading from Romans, and specifically Romans 5 verse 3-5
“Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope.
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.”
It sounds almost backwards to say we can find any good in hard times. But Paul isn’t saying pain itself is lovely. He’s pointing to what happens inside us when we don’t quit.
Trouble patiently endured, builds grit. Grit shapes who we are.
And a person who has been through the fire and still stands ? that person has a hope that feels solid, not fragile.
It’s not blind optimism. It’s the deep sense that God’s love has already been poured into us, and that changes how we face tomorrow.
I know, as we all know, that suffering is never the goal, but it can become a strange kind of teacher.
When we lean into God instead of running, even the hardest seasons can produce something that is real in us.
Hope grows best in soil that has been worked and turned over. And that hope, rooted in love, will not let us down.
Remember,
Life isn’t about waiting for the Storm to Pass,
It is about learning to Dance in the Wind”
Whatever life throws at us, we CAN overcome
