James 1:2, Romans 5:3-5
When the world is faced with difficulty they implode, get a life coach, or run to the quickest fix. But this is not what Jesus requires of us. He tells to rejoice and consider that moment in time a joyous occasion. Because the trial that He custom made for us is going to produce a most excellent result. It is going change who think we are into who He created us to be, a Saint and not a Sinner.
This does not mean we will not cry, experience hurt, or even suffer great loss. But it does reassure us that the end will always turn out greater than the beginning (Romans 8:18). We may not see it now and we may feel completely abandoned. However we are not, we are actually closer to Him (Psalm 34:18, Hebrews 13:5) So let us remember that if you accepted Jesus, He custom made your trial to mature you, grow you, change you, and to manifest in you more of Him and less of you. Stay focused, you can do this!
"In His JOY!"
