James 1:12
Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.
I don’t mean to be a Debbie Downer, but life is one long string of trials that we must endure. I know that sounds very pessimistic. I promise I am not being a pessimist.. Trials don’t have to always be bad things.
Think back to your childhood. School was most definitely a trial. However, through it you learned math and how to read and write. You made some friendships and found a grown up or two that cared about you. No, it was not all unicorns and rainbows, but you can remember some fond times, even if it was just lunch and recess..lol!
The point is life is going to be filled with ups and downs. Our job is to just keeping going through. In the end, we will be rewarded. Graduation is around the corner!
Lord, thank You for not only rewarding me at the end of my life, but through every trial in front of me. ~amen
