Dear brothers and sisters, when troubles come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing.
- James 1: 2-4
How true it is, especially for Christians, to remember this, that every trial, every challenge is from God, to let us have a chance to grow and develop us to the fullest potential. I noted this verse a few weeks ago during Sunday's sermon 'cause I hope that this will carry me forward, in times of despair. I'm alright now.. even though after 11 days of suspension, my period came. I was not as devastated as previously, which came as a shock to me too.. hahah... but I'm thankful for that as well. Anyway, when Pastor Chui shared this verse, I was so happy. Happy that its such a beautiful verse, that God's with us in ALL times and that when all is over, we will be good!- to be continued
