Bread of Adversity

Psalm 35:15 "But in mine adversity they rejoiced..."

Job had to have adversity to receive his double portion. He had to endure all of this to show others the "right way" to walk through trials. Sometimes our trials are for the greater good... Kingdom purpose. God allowed it. He trusted him with it.

Isaiah 30:20 "And though the Lord give you the bread of adversity and the water of affliction..."

Sometimes God allows these things to come... what is my reaction to tests and trials? I don't know about you, but I'm no "Job". Help me, Lord. I want to do better.
