Testing And Trials Produce Growth

Living through a difficult trial or time of testing can be frightening and stressful.  It goes without saying that these times are not fun.  However, after we have lived some life most of us come to realize that—even though they are unpleasant—these are the times in which our faith becomes very basic: we are either trusting in Christ or we are not.  We get to the essence of our faith.  These are also times in which we experience the greatest growth.
