There are two ways of getting out of a trial. One is simply to try to get rid of the trial, and be thankful when it is over.

You will have no test of faith that will not fit you to be a blessing if you are obedient to the Lord. I never had a trial but when I got out of the deep river I found some poor pilgrim on the bank that I was able to help by that very experience.
