James 1:2-4: 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.
This passage means that we should embrace trials. We should be joyful during the tough times we go through, remembering that the hardships are going to make us into the person God wants us to be.
Campers, life isn’t easy . . . we all face different difficulties, but remember that these difficulties build us up to be complete and mature. Also, I believe it’s in the tough times that we are closest to God and God won’t let us go through something we can’t handle.
