What I learnt this month is the way I think of words like perseverance, suffering...trails in a worldly way. So when I read the first line of James, I'm like,
'O!No! Not perseverance....not suffering...not joy in suffering...not that, anything but that.'
However I just learned some theological terms, for example the definition of perseverance is 'to continue in a state of GRACE until the end'- quite helpful. And also I learnt something about suffering too, you can suffer for good and be blessed...with suffering it's tough, because much of it is arbitrary- but not all of it- so I'm still counting it as helpful and at lot less gag making!
I also learnt , I've been given loads of perseverance, like seriously loads!
