God Customizes Trials

God customized the trials believers are in. He has a specific purpose and He designed your trouble just for you. Just for me.

Benefits of Trials

Paul, James, and Peter each tell us the benefits of trials. Trials bring about:

Paul: perseverance, proven character, hope. (Romans 5:3-5)

James: endurance, perfect result (perfect and complete, lacking in nothing). (James 1:3-4)

Peter:  proof of your faith, resulting in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ. (1 Peter 1:7)

Remember

God loves His children (those He adopted because of belief in Jesus Christ).

He has a glorious, guaranteed future for us.

He is sovereign and controls everything. 

He chooses the trials to get the results we need.

He has a loving purpose for the trials we face.

He gives us help during the trials.

Press on!

We have trials of varying difficulty, different depths, and different lengths. Let’s strive to the upmost now, knowing a glorious ending is guaranteed by our Almighty loving God.
