Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. James 1: 2-3
"Maybe you thought your goal as a Christian was to escape tribulations. But God's goal for you is maturity in Christ, becoming the person He designed you to be. And tribulation just happens to be one of the primary stepping stones on the pathway. That's why Paul says we should exult in our tribulations because our hope comes from proven character (Romans 5: 3-5)."
Neil T. Anderson, Freedom in Christ.
