His trials only tests your faith to see whether or not it is strong and pure.
Your faith is being tested and your sins are being purified.
and your faith is far more precious then mere gold to the lord,
so if your faith remains strong after being tested, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day of his return~

God hasn't left any of us.
the only way of knowing whether god is there is our fear.
We have a choice. Faith or Fear! That's the test!
It's true, choosing faith might not mean that you might not die, but it will effect on how we experience our death and therefore our life.
