Trials
These trials will show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold—though your faith is far more precious than mere gold. So when your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world.
1 Peter 1:7 (NLT)
Thought
Persevering by faith through trials and temptations proves our faith is real. When we refuse to compromise our faith by rejecting enticements to sin, we’ll be rewarded when Jesus returns.
