Receiving the Crown of Life – James 1:12
We can have joy during our trials because of what they produce in us. And, because at the end, we know we will receive the crown of life.
Encouraging, comforting and urging you to live lives worthy of God, who calls you into his kingdom and glory. (1 Thess. 2:12 NIV)
We can have joy during our trials because of what they produce in us. And, because at the end, we know we will receive the crown of life.
How do you respond to the challenges of life? Paul, and others, tells us to glory in our suffering because of what it produces in our lives.
How do you respond when life hands you lemons? James calls on us to be joyful in our trials. They help us to grow in maturity.
We have a living hope, the salvation of our souls. And that should impact every part of our life. Live for eternity, not just today.
