What should we expect as believers?

Why does the Lord send trials on believers?

1. Trials serves to show whether we really trust in God or in something else. 

2. Trials helps us appreciate what Christ has gone through for us.

3. Trials reminds us of how dreadful God’s judgment will be

How should we respond when trials hit?

1. Don’t be surprised but rejoice.

2. Don’t be ashamed but keep obeying.

3. Don’t be afraid but commit yourself to God.
