1. LET GOD USE THEM
Dear brothers and sisters, when-ever trouble comes your way, let it be an opportunity for joy. For when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be strong in character and ready for anything.
– James 1:2-4

2. PRAY THROUGH THEM

If you need wisdom—if you want to know what God wants you to do—ask him, and he will gladly tell you. He will not resent your asking.
– James 1:5

2. PRAY THROUGH THEM
 Expect An Answer

But when you ask him, be sure that you really expect him to answer, for a doubtful mind is as unsettled as a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind. People like that should not expect to receive anything from the Lord. They can't make up their minds. They waver back and forth in everything they do.
– James 1:6-8

2. PRAY THROUGH THEM
 Don’t Stop Praying!

– Luke 18:1

3. TAKE A REALITY CHECK

Photo by jlwo

 Accept Your Circumstances

Christians who are poor should be glad, for God has honored them. And those who are rich should be glad, for God has humbled them. They will fade away like a flower in the field. The hot sun rises and dries up the grass; the flower withers, and its beauty fades away. So also, wealthy people will fade away with all of their achievements.
– James 1:9-11
