Trials (cont)

1Pet 1:7

"That the trial of our faith much more precious than the gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire."

A gold digger gets his eyes on the gold and not on the obstacles that lie ahead of him.  We too need to get our eyes on the gold.  There is gold in every trial.  Get our eyes off the trial, look beyond to the gold.  Keep your mind and your heart set upon the gold, and you will find that you can face the trial a great deal easier than if you saw nothing beyond it.  The gold of Christian character comes only through stress and storm.

Results:

God always works out something worth while from our trials if we are true in them.  He does not try us merely to by trying us.  He has a definite purpose.  God humbles us and tries us just to do us good later.
