Point for the Day- What Now?

Rather than seeing troubles and trials as leading to joy, we often attempt to pray them away (James 1:2).

There are lessons to be learned through every experience of life. The seemingly negative experiences (the health scare, the financial crisis, the difficult decision) can be counted as joy when we remember that God has planned those for our good, to bring joy to us for His purpose. Though they may not feel like it in the moment, troubles and trials can be an opportunity for joy.
