No Wasted Suffering

A friend sent this to me yesterday and my pastor posted this on our church blog today.  It keeps popping up, and it is encouraging to read.  So, I recommend reading Stephen Altrogge's post: No Wasted Suffering.
Do you notice how James tells us to count it joy when we encounter trials of various kinds? Not just big, “I’ll probably give a testimony about this someday” kind of trials. All trials. Even the little, annoying things, that don’t seem exactly like trials but still tempt us to grumble and complain. Yeah, count those as joy too.
