A pastor argues that your current struggles aren't random hardship but a sign a blessing is coming. God tests your character first to make sure you're strong enough to handle what He's about to give you.
What if the test that you're facing right now, this seemingly never-ending cycle of problem after problem, what if that is proof that the blessing is just within your reach? Before God can bless you, he has to test you. Why? Because the blessing comes with weight, and God wants to ensure that the character within you is strong enough to handle the responsibility of the blessing that will come upon you.
