Why Saints Endure Trials 

SHARE THE WORD -- "And Jesus, immediately knowing in Himself that virtue had gone out of Him, turned to the crowd and said, Who touched My clothes?" ‭‭Mark‬ ‭5:30‬ ‭JUB‬‬

"If you know a person who has a good spiritual banking account, borrow from them for all you are worth, because they will give you all you want (and need) and never look to be paid back. Here is the reason ‘a saint’ goes through the things he or she does go through -- God wants to know if He can make him or her good ‘bread’ to feed other people with. The person who has gone through the crucible is going to be a tremendous support to hundreds of others. If you have a trial of faith, endure it until you get through. If you have been through trials of faith in the past, God is bringing across your path immature souls and you have no business to despise them but rather to help them through. There are people who spiritually and morally have to drain the vitals out of you, and if you don’t keep up the supply from the life of Jesus Christ, you will be like an exhausted volcano before long. You must keep that up and let them nourish themselves from you until they are able to stand on their own feet and take direct life from Jesus." -Oswald Chambers 

SHARE THE WORD -- "... who are kept in the virtue of God by faith, to attain unto the saving health which is made ready to be manifested in the last time. In which ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are afflicted in diverse temptations, that the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold (which perishes, nevertheless it is tried with fire), might be found unto praise and glory and honour when Jesus, the Christ, is made manifest;" ‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭1:5-7‬ ‭JUB‬‬

Simply Trust.
