1 Peter 4:12

Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you.

• Trials
• Faith
• Endurance
• Perseverance
• Suffering

Trials are a natural part of the Christian experience, and Peter encourages believers not to be surprised when they face difficulties. Suffering for the sake of Christ is a shared experience for all believers, but it is not a sign that God has abandoned us. Instead, trials serve to strengthen our faith, purify our hearts, and deepen our dependence on God. This verse calls us to embrace suffering as part of the refining process. It’s a reminder that trials are not "strange" or unexpected, but an essential part of our spiritual journey. Through them, we learn to endure, to trust in God's sovereignty, and to grow in maturity. Suffering becomes an opportunity for God to reveal His grace and to build in us the character of Christ.
