Tested

[Bob Wille (Family)]

“Dear brothers and sisters, when troubles come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy.
For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow.
So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing.”
James 1:2-4

Roots grow deep when the winds are strong.
Deep roots make for stronger lives.

Hello Bob;

When others hear this Scripture they exclaim "but these troubles don't make me feel joy inside!"

God understands we're not going to bubble up with joy when troubles fall our way. Its the joy that we are empowered with faith and endurance as God will deliver us. That enough is reason to be joyful.

God bless you, Bob and Happy New Year!
