Test tomorrow

I have a test tomorrow - I have to recite a short (memorized) speech in Chinese about my grandfather.

L. Alfred Mannhardt with his mother Jesse

At the Bible study Monday night one of the boys said that testing is what motivates us to learn and we wouldn't learn much with out it. He said we know a whole lot more after at test.

It's funny... that's exactly the point of last week's Bible Study with KGK OB and also one of the points in John's morning sermon on Sunday. God tests us to improve us. The difficulties we dislike so much are for our benefit.

...the testing of your faith develops perseverance... so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.
