"Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations; that the trial of your faith ... might be found unto praise and honor and glory at the appearance of Jesus Christ;" 1 Peter 1:6-7
The trial of our faith will be the tests, temptations, and troubles that we go through in this life. Know that trouble will come (the trial of your faith); it is temporary (for a season); it serves a purpose (if need be); it brings distress (heaviness); it comes in various forms (manifold temptations); and it should not diminish a Christian's joy (ye greatly rejoice).
After each test that we come through, we can say "To God be the glory!"
