Scripture: James 1:2-15

Consider: “God does not give us overcoming life - He gives us life as we overcome. The strain of life is what builds our strength.If there is no strain, there will be no strength. Are you asking God to give you life, liberty, and joy? He cannot, unless you are willing to accept the strain. And once you face the strain, you will immediately get the strength.” Oswald Chambers ‘My Utmost For His Highest’

Pray: Thank God for the trials, the strain for which He gives you strength to overcome. Thank Him for the Joy you receive from His grace, and thank Him for producing in you character that gives God glory.
