James 1:2-4
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. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.
Nowhere in the Bible does it say that followers of Christ will have it easy. When life gets hard, our faith is put to the test, and when this happens, James encourages us to rejoice. Perseverance through hardships allows us to grow, and gives God an opportunity to show His goodness and grace in our lives.
