James 1:2-4

Count it all joy, my brothers,[b]when you meet trials of various kinds, 3 for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. 4 And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.

Through life we will have obstacles that we must overcome. The joy comes in being able to handle the obstacles that come our way, and knowing God will be with us through them. The more things you face in life, the more things you will be able to handle in the future.

How do you react when you are being tested in life? Are you still an example of what a Christian looks like, or do you let the pressure get to you? Challenge: when tested in life, maintain a good attitude, knowing that you will be stronger once you’ve made it through the test.
