TONIGHT’S SCRIPTURE:

Romans 5:3–5

Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, [4] and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, [5] and hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us. (ESV)

SUMMARY

We read Romans 5:3–5 and sit with the claim that suffering is not pointless when God is at work in us. We speak to those in ongoing pain and pray for endurance, changed character, and real hope through the Holy Spirit.

• reading Romans 5:3–5 and naming the promise of hope 
• acknowledging chronic pain and long suffering with empathy 
• tracing the sequence suffering to endurance to character to hope 
• trusting God’s love poured into our hearts by the Holy Spirit 
• praying for strength, faith, and rest in the middle of hardship
