Trials & Hardship

“My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;”

“Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.”

“But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.”

“And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;”

“And patience, experience; and experience, hope:”

“When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.”

“Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all.”

“These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.”
