"Consider it nothing but joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you fall into various trials." - James 1:2
Consider it all joy? Yeah, right.
For much of my life I felt this was an impossible command to obey. I remembered some of the trials in my life and wondered how I could ever have found joy in any of them. They were burdensome, painful, and, at the time, seemed to last far longer than I could ever hope to endure.
