1 Peter 1:5-7

The Voice

⁵ Through faith, God’s power is standing watch, protecting you for a salvation that you will see completely at the end of things. ⁶ You should greatly rejoice in what is waiting for you, even if now for a little while you have to suffer various trials. ⁷ Suffering tests your faith which is more valuable than gold (remember that gold, although it is perishable, is tested by fire) so that if it is found genuine, you can receive praise, honor, and glory when Jesus the Anointed, our Liberating King, is revealed at last.
