James 1:2 “Consider it pure joy, my brothers, when you encounter trials of many kinds,” 1 Peter 1:7 “so that the proven character of your faith—more precious than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory, and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.” Romans 5:3 “Not only that, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance;” 1 Corinthians 10:13 “No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide an escape, so that you can stand up under it.” Isaiah 43:2 “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you go through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be scorched; the flames will not set you ablaze.”
