Romans 5:1-5  (New King James Version)<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Faith Triumphs in Trouble<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

5 <\/span>Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, <\/span>2 <\/sup>through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. <\/span>3 <\/sup>And not only that,<\/i> but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; <\/span>4 <\/sup>and perseverance, character; and character, hope. <\/span>5 <\/sup>Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Proverbs 13:12-16  (New King James Version)<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\n

12 <\/sup>Hope deferred makes the heart sick,<\/span>
\nBut when<\/i> the desire comes, it is<\/i> a tree of life.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

13 <\/sup>He who despises the word will be destroyed,<\/span>
\nBut he who fears the commandment will be rewarded.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

14 <\/sup>The law of the wise is<\/i> a fountain of life,<\/span>
\nTo turn one<\/i> away from the snares of death.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

15 <\/sup>Good understanding gains favor,<\/span>
\nBut the way of the unfaithful is<\/i> hard.<\/span>
\n16 <\/sup>Every prudent man<\/i> acts with knowledge,<\/span>
\nBut a fool lays open his<\/i> folly.<\/span><\/p>\n
