Thank You: joyful in our trials

 Thank You: joyful in our trials by ric gustafson


According to James 1, we should be joyful in our trials. What comes from that is perseverance or endurance. Endurance is the ability to remain spiritually mature even when we are hurting. To have gratitude, we need to experience a difficult and painful life. We already have the victory. Romans 8 tells us that we are more than conquerors. This can give us hope with the difficulties of life. In faith, we have victory. 
Some of our trials and tribulations in life are a test of faith. We are being tested on our faith and spiritual maturity. Either we grow stronger or recognize our weaknesses. If we pass these tests, we will be rewarded. In this life we face difficulties and blessings. The truth is Jesus loves us more than anything else.
