Consider it all joy when you fall into all kinds of trials, knowing that the part of your entrustment to God which has been proved creates the capacity for endurance. Then let endurance see you through to its final conclusion. Then God will have made you mature and complete, lacking nothing. God is creating of you a vessel of honor, gold tried by fire. God is at work in us both to get us to do his will and to get us to want to do his will.
Faith is readiness to trust and obey.
God, who sees what is in your heart, values your willingness as much as your deed. And he despises service grudgingly given. That is why salvation is reckoned from faith. God has a plan for your life. Trust in God.
