Trials & Tribulations: Can't Live Without Them


Sometimes, in life, we face challenges. Many times we ask ourselves why this is happening; 'I am living an honest life' or 'This isn't fair, I am a good person'.  These trials & tribulations are not always because you're doing something wrong, but because you're doing something right.

Every person we meet, every hill we climb and every slope we slide down has crossed our path for a reason. Will you take the time to have a conversation with the person sitting next to you in the airplane, or stare at your laptop? Will you enjoy the view at the top of the hill, instead of complaining about sore muscles? Will you blame a co-worker's unprofessional behavior for pushing you down a slope, or thank them for allowing you to change your direction & distance of their negativity with quick speed.

Sometimes our greatest trials in life lead us to the grandest rewards. 'Don't think it strange when you face fiery trials.' 1 Peter 4:12

What trial or tribulation have you survived?
