Jesus Advantage

My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, 3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. 4 But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. 

James 1:2-4

When trial and tribulation come into our lives and the Lord doesn’t instantly heal or fix everything, we as His children are called to exude a higher sensitivity of His will and ways. It is for our good that we are tested so that we may come into the fruits of the spirit through almost a “hands on” approach. Without the testing of our faith and being driven deeper into the word we will never truly pursue being “perfect and complete, lacking nothing.”
