A Promise for Persevering

Do you consider yourself blessed when you encounter trials? Is there a settled contentment and joyfulness that permeates your soul in the middle of life’s challenges? James says that the person who endures trials is blessed. When he or she has stood the test he will receive the crown of life that God gives to those who love Him. Scripture tells us that the demonstration of our love is our obedience to His commands. Loving God in the trial is the motivation we need that helps build our faith and keep us going through the life challenge knowing that we have an eternal reward waiting for us. That keeps us going. So how is your love for God? Do you know for sure you will receive the crown of life? Be encouraged, God has made a promise for persevering.
