The apostle Peter described faith as "much more precious than gold that perishes." As gold passes through purifying fire, so Peter says a man's faith must be tried in order that it "might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ" (1 Peter 1:7). While we address the crises in our lives that try our faith, we rarely praise God the way Job did, and we rarely submit ourselves to the purifying fire as Peter suggests. Rather, we often ask ourselves difficult questions like:

Does God love or even care about me?
Where is God?
Why is this happening to me?
