In the book of James,we are asked to consider our trials and testing times as a joy, That's very weird cos I have faced many trying times in my life and believe you me, joy was the last thing that I was feeling. There is a good reason that this is asked of us, simply because testing of ones faith allows us to persevere.
Perseverance is important as this will ensure that the job is done or our problem is resolved and through this process of perseverance one would become wiser and stronger as we can use this test and trial as an opportunity to ask GOD for something that will help us through this.
Remember that when you ask something of GOD you have to believe whole heartedly that it will happen. You cannot only say that you believe, GOD knows your heart and your thoughts, he will know if you doubt him and this doubt will prevent him from helping you or blessing as you have requested.
Look at your trial as a lesson from GOD, The thing and truth about life is that trials, hardships and disappointments are all a part of it. With GOD on your side anything and all things are possible BUT it's up to you on whether you want to take him up on his offer of unconditional love. JESUS paid the price is your turn to reap the rewards.
Keeping the faith Always
