because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.
James 1:3 (NIV)
Tests Help You Grow
Tests and hard times do not come to destroy you. They come to help you grow stronger.
Think about exercise. Your muscles grow when you use them and carry weights. In the same way, difficult situations help your faith become stronger.
The early Christians faced many hard things, but they did not give up. They kept trusting God and sharing the good news about Jesus.
When you go through a difficult time, do not think, “This will finish me.” Remember that God is with you, and His strength is in you.
You may not like the test, but you will grow through it. So keep trusting God and thanking Him for helping you.
Read Your Bible.
Genesis 50:20. 2 Corinthians 4:7-10. Romans 5:3-5.
2 Corinthians 12:8-10
Speak the Word!
“God’s power is in me, so I stay strong and keep going.”
