1 Peter 1:6-7

In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in various trials / so that the proven character of your faith—more precious than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory, and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.  

Daily Prayer

Father, help me to rejoice in my future hope despite the distresses of life’s various trials.
