BLESSED
Trials
Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance
And let endurance have its perfect result, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing

Blessed is a man who perseveres trials; for once he has been approved; he will receive the crown of life, which the Lord has promised to those who love Him
And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from evil

But each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust
Then when lust has conceived, it gives birth to sin, and when sin is accomplished, it brings forth death

This you know, my beloved brethren
But let everyone be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren

For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a mirror, for once he has looked at himself and gone away, he has immediately forgotten what kind of person he was
