Have you ever pondered that life is a test? A test that develops character, leadership, skillsets, and purpose.
Every corner turned, every mountain high, every valley low, there’s a test.

My son came home from school and he was telling me all about his tests coming up. And then the question — Why do I have to take so many tests? I just want to get a job and help people.
Now that’s from a seventh grader.
But when you think about it, life is a test. From the time you are conceived through birth, and then newborn to adolescent stages. You are always being measured by development milestones.
Then it’s time for school. Every class, every grad, every achievement is based on what you’ve learned; problems solved, solutions understood.
And then we grow up. All should be perfect. Yet this is only the beginning. Life is a test.
Just as your milestones are measured and your knowledge is examined, God tests you too.
He watches how you handle challenges. He sees where you stumble and when you get back up. He holds you tight with love, grace, and mercy.
And then he challenges you again — trials and temptations. Stretching you. Transforming you. Growing you.
Tests develop and reveal character.
The K.I.S.S. ~ Take a page from God’s book!
- Nothing is insignificant.
- Every moment matters, big and small. You matter!!!
- Take each moment and create your now.
“No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.” ~ 1 Corinthians 10:13
So as my son and I finished chatting, he remarked, “I’m off to study for the tests. Gotta be prepared.”
“Life is a test. God is already preparing a way for you to pass. Draw close to God and have faith. One step at a time leads to miles of greatness.”
