Joy Cometh in the Morning Barry Ross

In life, we are faced with many trials and tribulations as Christians and even non-Christians, it is life! As Christians, we are told that it is during these periods in life that our "faith," is being tried. we are instructed to endure these trials and allow them to work "Patience," in our charcter. The Bible tell us that we are in need of patience! Patience is a virtue which come only one way, through endurance!We are told that "For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning (Psalm-30:5 KJV)." During the period of weeping in the night, it is usually a time of sadness, sorrow and affliction accompained with fear and depending on how we receive and respond to the trial either strengthens us or destroy us; mentally, physically and especially spiritually! God has promised that he will be with us in our trails and to give us peace that passes all natural understanding and in return take our worries! God want us to glorify him in our trials as he give us strength to endure. The "trying of our faith," worketh patience in our charcter if we allow patience to have her "perfect work." Although God may not "remove," the trial, God does promise to prepare us and provide us with what is needed prior entering the trial, to be with us in the trial and with the trial give us a way of "escape," out of the trial. Sometimes, that way of escape includes death in which God have mercy and death would be a blessing compared to continuing in suffering from some evil! God delivers the righteous from the evil to come by death, turning death into a blessing according to the wise providence of God! We learn and apply these principles found in the word of God. Realizing that God is faithful and will not permit us to be tempted above that which we are able! Trust your life to him and glorify him during these difficult times in your life and with patience, "Stand still and see the salvation of the Lord!" Weeping may endure for a night, but my friends, "Joy Cometh In The Morning!"
