In 1 Peter 1:6 we read, “In this you greatly rejoice, even though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been distressed by various trials.” Only in the Christian faith can we speak of joy and distress in the same sentence! You see, if my faith is to be pure faith, it will weather the fiery tested when tried. And how is that faith proven? It keeps trusting God and thus greatly rejoicing, even when experiencing distress.

Lisa,
the more you talk, the more you remind me of myself. Someone once said
perfection is the enemy of done and when I find myself stressing and trying
too hard I remind myself of this.
