1 Peter 1:6-7 Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations:
[7] That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:
When we don’t have answers, can’t see ahead, need help; it’s awesome how God shows up in His time with victory.
That strengthens our faith.
Through It All

I've had many tears and sorrows, — I've had questions for tomorrow, — There's been times I didn't know right from wrong. — But in every situation, — God gave me blessed consolation, — That my trials only come to make me strong.
Chorus:
Through it all, — Through it all, — I've learned to trust in Jesus, — I've learned to trust in God. — Through it all, — Through it all, — I've learned to depend upon His Word.
I've been to lots of places, — I've seen a lot of faces, — there's been times I felt so all alone. — But in my lonely hours, — Yes, those precious lonely hours, — Jesus lets me know that I was His own.
I thank God for the mountains, — And I thank Him for the valleys, — I thank Him for the storms He brought me through. — For if I'd never had a problem, — I wouldn't know God could solve them, — I'd never know what faith in God could do.
