“Endurance produces character which contributes in some measure to the things which are to come because it gives power to the hope which is within us. Nothing encourages a man to hope for blessing more than the strength of a good character. No one who has led a good life worries about the future. Does our good really lie in hope? Yes but not in human hopes which often vanish and leave only embarrassment behind. Our hope is in God and is therefore sure and immovable.” – St John Chrysostom #Perseverance #Endurance #Character Hope #LoveOfGod #HolySpirit #Tribulations #Trials #Hardships #Coptic…
