"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
To me...this just means like in any trial, test, failure, fall, trip, stumble...it's all from God...and He will never put us through something He knows we can't handle (1 Corinthians 10:13). We have to go through struggles and failures to grow, to learn, to become stronger. God uses it to struggle...not for us to suffer for His pure enjoyment. So good, bad, happy, sad...rejoice and thank God in all circumstances...it's all for the greater good. The testing of your faith produces perseverance...trust in Him and have faith in Him...it'll be worth it. He tests us to...make us stronger...make our faith stronger...to let us know that He's always there for us to lean on and depend on.
