Give Up or Grow Up

 


When things get hard, do you give up?

 

 

“Our faith, trust, and love are proved and revealed in adversities, that is, in difficult and grievous outward and inward circumstances, during sickness, sorrow, and privations.”
John of Kronstadt (1829-1908)

When things get hard, your faith, trust and love grow. Growth is good.

 

 

 

John of Kronstadt was a Russian Orthodox archpriest. He established the “House of the Industry,” a relief organization with an orphanage, school, hospital, free library, shelter for the homeless and workshops where the poor could earn some money.
