James instructs us to “count it all joy!” (James 1:3)
Jesus told his followers: “I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world (John 16:33, NLT).”
The world may feel like it’s falling apart, but maybe it’s really just falling into place.
