Our Trials are our Tutors

Interesting thought that I heard tonight. Maybe the pit of despair is my trial (or one of them). I say this is half a funny way, half a truthful way. I'm going to try to be more teachable through this to see what God is trying to say to me - not to be so consumed by the things in my life, for one. The longer the trial stays with me, the more I have a chance to learn.
