A dangerous thing to do-- Believe that the trial that you are or may be going through is ordained by God to make you stronger.
The trial you are going through is a result of living in this world. The goal that God wants for you from it and through it is to draw you closer to Him in absolute dependence and trust and love.
This doesn't happen when you believe that He has ordained the trial for you to make you stronger. That breeds pride. Pride is always very dangerous.
Living in this world has trials. God certainly does use those trials for His purposes, but His purpose is always to love you and to show you His love for you. That love MUST be your only goal through any trial you face.
God works through the trials that we go through to bring us closer to Him... FOR LOVE.
