Count it all Joy!!!!

We desire happiness, health, wealth and lots of friends who love us, but this is not real life for most born-again believers.

When we are going through a Job experience we can remain faithful to the Word of God allowing His principles to carry us through knowing He already knows our plight and has the answers.

And most of all our trials allow us to learn good lessons from all the difficulties we must endure. The lessons are more important than getting what we want our own way.

James 1:2-8 "2 Consider it all joy, my brothers and sisters, when you encounter various trials,

3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.

4 And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.

5 But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him.

6 But he must ask in faith without any doubting, for the one who doubts is like the surf of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind.

7 For that person ought not to expect that he will receive anything from the Lord,

8 being a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways."

Praise God He is coming for His church soon.
