Joy over Trials

Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. James 1:2‭-‬3 NIV

I don't know that this is humanly possible...to consider it joy when you go through trials.  But what I do know is that nothing worth having is easy. I also know that of I want something or want to accomplish something, I have to work at it and I might fail or have trouble. In the end though is the reward. That's what I think the apostle was talking about.

God does test our faith. We wish he didn't just like we wish we never had to face any troubles. But I know that God is in control and he is more concerned about my faith and eternal well being than my comfort here.

So I must trust him or all is in vain.
