James 1:2-3 (ESV)
2 Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, 3 for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.
Steadfastness describes the patient endurance that will allow us to overcome the world. This is the meaning of all things work for the good of those who love the Lord. If we endure in the obedience of Christ, we shall receive the blessings of heaven which is the inheritance of all those who follow Christ. Christ is the faithful witness of the Father and it is the body of Christ who continues in His word.
