Color by Trial

the old leafless oak

does not squabble with the storm

that paints her branches

For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.
Hebrews 12:11 (ESV)

I'm just a regular guy who was
tempted to lose all hope but did not. It was God who made the difference.
