God offers us hope. But we don't automatically have hope. There is a way we must go, a road we must travel to reach that hope. It starts with our enduring trials and tribulations, leading to developing patience, from which we grow in our experiences and ultimately reach our goal of hope. Let's follow how this road leads us.
