Finding God in the midst of trials.
Suffering is an awful experience. I wish we could all avoid it.
But nevertheless, we do suffer.
**James suffered and wrote to Christians who suffered.**
Count it all joy, my brothers and sisters, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.
How are suffering - and various trials - causing discouragement in your life?
How does God help you get through suffering?
(Who can you reach out to for support?)
