Let us run with patience the race that is set before us Hebrews 12:1  

But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold. Job 23:10

Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: 1 Peter 4:12   Heard a story one time goes sort of like this:  There was a man who went before God and told Him his cross was just too heavy to carry, was there a different one he could get.  God told him to put his cross in that door then come into this room and pick out a new one.  The man went in and looked around, every size and shape of crosses you could imagine.  The man continued looking until way back against the wall he sees this very small cross.  He points and says that's the one he wants.  God told him, "That one my son is the one you just laid down."

Then to make sure you can make it through all the places you have to run...
