    For It “Worketh Patience,” April 5

    My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into diver’s temptations; Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. James 1:2, 3.RRe 97.1

    The bright and cheerful side of our religion will be represented by all who are daily consecrated to God. We should not dishonor God by the mournful relation of trials that appear grievous. All trials that are received as educators will produce joy. The whole religious life will be uplifting, elevating, ennobling, fragrant with good words and works. The enemy is well pleased to have souls depressed, downcast, mourning and groaning; he wants just such impressions made as to the effect of our faith. But God designs that the mind shall take no low level. He desires every soul to triumph in the keeping power of the Redeemer.—Testimonies for the Church 6:365.RRe 97.2

    The trial of faith is more precious than gold. All should learn that this is a part of discipline in the school of Christ, which is essential to purify and refine them from the dross of earthliness. They must endure with fortitude the taunts and attacks of enemies, and overcome all obstacles that Satan may place in their path to hedge up the way.—Testimonies for the Church 5:578.RRe 97.3

    “Happy is he who has thy discipline and thine instruction, training him calmly to wait on, in adversity, till a pit is dug for ungodly men!” Psalm 94:12, Moffatt.RRe 97.4
