| Dear friends, when troubles come - and they will, let it be an opportunity for joy then. When your faith is tested -your endurance has a chance to grow again and again. When your endurance is fully developed you will be strong in character. You will know deep in your heart that God is there. Do you need wisdom? If you want to know what God wants you to do - ask Him! God will gladly tell you and will not resent you asking, my friend. God blesses the people who patiently endure testing they will be ready for anything then. Afterward they will receive the crown of life promised to those who love Him. inspired by James 1:1-12 written 12/15/2008 |
