James 1:12---Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.
We do not
like to take a test unless we are sure we know all the answers. We may think we
have all the answers in life, but we soon learn some answers are challenging to
find. We are tested each day as we seek to live a life of holiness. In Christ,
we can stand the test of endurance and faithfulness. As we take our burdens to
Him in Christ, we can find Him standing ready to pour out His blessings upon
us. In our daily life, we all need to be patient. The crown of life is not
fully bestowed upon us while we are walking the earth. However, we fully
receive the crown of life and all the Lord's blessings when we remain faithful,
holy, and devout. We fully receive the Lord's benefits when we see Him face to
face.
