Trials

Life is full of trials and pain, yet with each one strength is gained. 
Character is not built from ease, but from hard things like death and disease.
This I've learned in my life, to have peace even in strife!

Indeed. That is part of life and the purpose is to build character and a deeper heart that can connect to the heart of God. Thanks for a thought provoking write. Enjoyed. Caroline.
