"Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything."
-James 1:2-4
This bible verse has helped me to not to lose heart in times of trials and to keep things in perspective. Everyone struggles with something in life that makes them question God sometimes. I am guilty of being angry at God at times but this verse has reminded me countless times that God is in control and that He knows what is best for me. It is through times of trial that God can shape us and mold us into a more Christ-like person and deeper satisfaction in Him.
I heard a quote before that said, "The only one that can satisfy the heart is the One who made it." I think that rings true.
