+#Trial
+
+The word “trial” is used to talk about when someone experiences something very difficult. 
+
+Sometimes God allows people to have trials in order to test their faith. Christians need to rejoice when they have trials and suffering for believing in Jesus (1 Peter 4:15-16). This is because trials and suffering help Christians to mature spiritually (Romans 5:3-5; James 1:2-3; 1 Peter 1:6-7). Many Christians have trials such as being tempted, beaten, imprisoned, or even killed because of their faith (Luke 22:28; Acts 20:19).
