The most extraordinary thing about the oyster is this. Irritations get into his shell. He does not like them. But when he cannot get rid of them, he uses the irritation to do the loveliest thing an oyster ever has a chance to do. If there are irritations in our lives today, there is only one prescription: Make a pearl. It may have to be a pearl of patience, but, anyhow, make a pearl. Harry Emerson Fosdick But that’s not all. We also brag when we are suffering. We know that suffering creates endurance,
endurance creates character, and character creates confidence. Romans 5:3-4
(GW)
