The following verses, both written by Paul, will help you answer today’s questions:
Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope. -Romans 5:3-5 (ESV)
Even when we are weighed down with troubles, it is for your comfort and salvation! For when we ourselves are comforted, we will certainly comfort you. Then you can patiently endure the same things we suffer. -2 Corinthians 1:6 (NLT)

Video: Sara Groves introduces “Floodplain” and talks about the role of positive thinking in our lives
Song: “Floodplain” – Sara Groves
Some hearts are built on a floodplain, keeping one eye on the sky for rain. You work for the ground that gets washed away when you live closer…
Closer to the life and the ebb and flow, closer to the edge of I don’t know, closer to that’s the way it goes… Some hearts are built on a floodplain.
And it’s easy to sigh on a high bluff, look down and ask when you’ve had enough. Will you have the sense to come on up or will you stay closer?
Closer to the danger and the rolling deep, closer to the run and the losing streak and what brings us to our knees… Some hearts live here.
Oh the river it rushes to madness and the water it spreads like sadness and there’s no high ground. Closer to the danger and the rolling deep, closer to the run and the losing streak and what brings us to our knees…
Closer to the life and the ebb and flow, closer to the edge of I don’t know, closer to Lord please send a boat… Some hearts are built here.

Love came down and hope was found; Now we’re waking up to a brighter day.
