Jesus told his disciples they would be hated and persecuted
for their beliefs ( Matthew 10:17-31 )

Disciples could expect physical blessings , but with trails..
( Mark 10: 29-30 )

The apostles echoed Jesus' teaching. James wrote of Christians
who were facing " trials of many kinds ". ( James 1:2 )

Peter wrote to the Church , saying : " In this you greatly rejoice,
though now for alittle while you may have had to suffer grief in all
kinds of trials " ( 1 peter 1:6 )

Or literal Bible translation .. in which you exult, yet a little ( while ),
if need be , grieving in manifold trails.. so that the proveing
of your faith , much more precious then perishing gold ,
but haveing been proved thru fire ,
may be found to praise and honor and glory at
( The) revelation of Jesus Christ...

Of course , it's not the trail itself that brings joy...
Joy comes in knowing trails provide opportunities for
spiritual enrichment...
