Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds.

Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds. James 1:2

Is it even possible to consider it pure joy when we face trials? I wonder why? Let's read on...

... because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. James 1:3,4

Trials enable us to mature in our faith. Trials allow us to recognize our dependency on God. Trials teach us to acknowledge His deliverance. Trials are allowed to prepare us to minister to others when they pass through similar circumstances. Above all, trials make us long for His kingdom.

So, let's consider it all JOY; shall we? Have a great day ahead and His presence will be with you!
