This book was birthed from personal experiences in my life as a minister and christian believer. It is my sincere prayer that as you read each chapter you will find hope and guidance through your present trial or storm. Be assured they will not remain as trials but afterwards our loving Savior will launch you into a blissful orbit where the richness of his triumphant victory resides. Trials are assigned by God and therefore their assignment has an expiration date. This book is written to inspire you to persevere through every trimester of the trial you encounter and understand the pain is essential to the new birth you are about to experience in your relationship with Christ. Reformation of our thoughts about suffering will bring about a new perception and understanding of its purpose beyond its presence. We must consider ourselves as privileged to suffer because of divine favor and selection for the advancement of the kingdom of God. During the trial allow Christ to mold you and prepare you to fulfill the divine assignment He has appointed to your destiny. Don’t walk away from the trial, but embrace it and gracefully endure hardness as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. During the trial your faith will increase and your expectation will evolve to new levels as you become demonstrative of the power of Christ in your life.
