Facing trials

"Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know
that the testing of your faith develops perseverance." James 1:2
"Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial." James 1:12

This beautiful Cardinal is a bright spot surrounded by a lot of
dreariness.


I have been facing a few trials these last couple of months and have faced some real dreariness of life but I have also had the joy of being able to look to God for the beauty in the trial and to know that He is asking me to stay faithful and persevere through this time as He works all things out. I have so much to be thankful for.
