God is using your struggles to toughen you up!
\nIt\u2019s like viewing a movie after you\u2019ve read the book. When something bad happens, everyone else gasps at the crisis on the screen. Not you. Why? You\u2019ve read the book. You know how the good guy gets out of the tight spot.
\nGod views your life with the same confidence. He\u2019s not only read your story, he wrote it. His perspective is different, and his purpose is clear. One of God\u2019s cures for weak faith? A good, healthy struggle.
\nConsider it a gift when tests and challenges come at you from all sides. Under pressure, your faith-life is forced into open and shows its true colors. Scripture says, let it do its work so you become mature and well-developed, not deficient in any way. (James 1:2-3)
\nJoin with the Old Testament prophet Isaiah who resolved, \u201cI will trust in him and not be afraid!\u201d (Isaiah 12:2)<\/p>\n
