as i'm dealing with hard issues or "being tested" i've noticed that it brings stinky parts of my personality to the surface.
pride
anger
rebellion
self pity
complaining
self righteousness... just to name a few... ugh
could this be one of the reasons that I'm being tested in this particular way... Of course!
i'm still focusing on James 1:2-4 the amplified version of the bible says it like this:
Consider it wholly joyful, my brethren, whenever you are enveloped in or encounter trials of any sort or fall into various temptations. Be assured and understand that the trial and proving of you faith bring out endurance and steadfastness and patience. (with no defects), lacking in nothing.
I've also gone back and read the trials vs consequences post that i wrote quite a while back. Remembering what God was showing me back then has been helpful.
keep moving forward no matter how small the step...
