My kids have been trying to teach me to play Temple Run , not sure if anyone has tried this, but it involves brain hand co-ordination which I simply don't possess, so my poor guy keeps crashing into trees or diving off the wall.
It did occur to me how good it might be if we could just as easily swipe ourselves over the hard times in our lives, avoid the bumps along the way and swerve to miss the obstacles, but then maybe we would never grow and learn. After all the temple run guy has to keep going back to the starting point while I like to think that God holds my hand when I hit the wall, then picks me up and sets me back on the road more ready for the next challenge.
'Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope.'
