This is a passage in James about the Trials we face. This section has helped me remember that trials shouldn't be things that competely tear us down and bleed. God doesn't want us to feel like that, we should use the trials that come up to grow in our faith and become stronger instead of letting them get us down.
When me and my love took a break (which we're still technically on, except we're more toward broken up until a later date now) I was devisated and I let it competely tear me down and depress me. After a week of being in pain I realized that that wasn't how God wanted me to feel, so I gave it up to him and from that painful week I've learned a very valuable lesson that I will use the rest of my life. I learned that God is in control and he will take care of me, I only need to ask, but asking sometimes is the hard part.
Trials are painful sometimes, other times they aren't that bad, but there is nothing so bad that we should give up our joy for deep sadness. When trials get you down give the burden up to God and grow.
