Most of the country and much of the world is locked down by this COVID-19 pandemic. I’m afraid that things will get much worse before they get much better.
God is always doing 10,000 things in your life, and you may be aware of three of them. - John Piper
James 1:3 NASB95
3knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.
Joy in the Trial
James 1:2 NASB95
2Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials,
How can we find joy in something like pandemic and quarantine?
Trials provide us the opportunity for self-examination and self improvement.
Testing Produces Endurance
James 1:3 NASB95
3knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.
Testing is necessary in life. Trials bring opportunities for growth.
Endurance Brings Growth
James 1:4 NASB95
4And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.
