Romans, Verse 5

"...suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not disappoint us..."

Hope is essential in life.  There is much hope behind another expression:  "this too shall pass" from an old proverb.  I use this expression frequently.  For me, it inspires hope that as time moves forward, whatever difficulties I am currently facing shall pass (even though how I choose to use the expression does not utilize the full interpretation of the proverb.)
