“What is to give light must endure burning.”Viktor Frankl
In modern life, this quote reminds us that achieving our goals often requires sacrifice and perseverance. For instance, someone who wants to become physically fit must endure the discomfort of exercise to achieve their desired strength and endurance. Like a candle that must burn to give light, we must push through challenges to reach our full potential.
Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope,
Romans 5:3-4 speaks about rejoicing in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces perseverance, and perseverance produces character, and character produces hope. This aligns with the idea that enduring challenges and sacrifices can lead to growth and ultimately achieving our goals.
