AN ADMISSION

Leectionary Text: Romans 5:3 (RSV) - More than that, we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance. . .

AN ADMISSION

I wish I could say honestly, O Lord, that I rejoice                                          
in suffering, but I admit that if I had the choice
I would not choose to suffer just to learn how to endure
the kinds of tribulations that St. Paul did, that's for sure!
