PrayerBits for Saturday

PrayerBits

A bite sized devotional program
produced by the West Side Presbyterian Church

Saturday

Scripture lesson: Romans 5:1-5 The value of suffering

Time to reflect: With varying images, the teacher is trying to get students to not take these important lessons lightly but be thoroughly committed to them.

Moving through the day: Think through the sequence in verses 3-5. Do you agree? Has this been your experience? Where has it broken down for you? Do you know what you should be hoping for?

Scripture:

Romans 5:1-5

5Therefore, since we are justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2through whom we have obtained access to this grace in which we stand; and we boast in our hope of sharing the glory of God. 3And not only that, but we also boast in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, 4and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, 5and hope does not disappoint us, because God?s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit that has been given to us.
