Life constantly tests our faith, patience, and character through various challenges. Paul teaches in 1 Corinthians that these tests are common to everyone, controlled by God who knows our limits, and completable with His help. God allows tests to develop our learning and reveal our true character. He faithfully provides a way through every trial, monitoring us like a goldsmith watches gold in fire. Instead of asking God to remove our tests, we should seek what He wants us to learn through them, trusting His timing and remembering His unchanging faithfulness.
