We are always on the anvil; by trials God is shaping us for higher things.

'Stand By You' is about sticking by the person you love not only when things are easy, but being there for them during trials and letting them know they aren't alone.

Life is filled with detours and dead ends, trials and challenges of every kind. Each of us has likely had times when distress, anguish, and despair almost consumed us.

Public trials are very unsupervised and extremely swift and speak to the most primordial parts of us.

I played football at school - but it was something you had to do up in Lanarkshire. But my first love was always motorcycles, and at the age of 11 I went into the Scottish schoolboy motocross trials.

By 1892, enlightenment had progressed to the point where the Salem trials were simply an embarrassing blot on the history of New England. They were a part of the past that was best forgotten: a reminder of how far the human race had come in two centuries.

As I look back over fifty years of ministry, I recall innumerable tests, trials and times of crushing pain. But through it all, the Lord has proven faithful, loving, and totally true to all his promises.

I'm not one of those actors who romanticizes his trials working out and brags that he can bench press a panda now.

Death Row inmates are almost twice as expensive to house each year as other inmates. Death penalty trials are much costlier than trials where execution is not a potential punishment and consume more time from judges, public defenders, and other legal personnel.

The pursuit of peace and progress cannot end in a few years in either victory or defeat. The pursuit of peace and progress, with its trials and its errors, its successes and its setbacks, can never be relaxed and never abandoned.

If we are faithful to God in little things, we shall gain experience and strength that will be helpful to us in the more serious trials of life.

There's so many things that life is, and no matter how many breakthroughs, trials will exist and we're going to get through it. Just be strong.

Trials teach us what we are.

As sure as ever God puts His children in the furnace, He will be in the furnace with them.

... Not only are we comforted in our trials, but our trials can equip us to comfort others.

Thank you Lord that this has a purpose. You're going to teach me something of your greatness in this that I would never have known otherwise.

When God wants to make a man, he puts him into some storm.

The gem cannot be polished without friction, nor man perfected without trials.

Every moment of my life I realize that God is putting me on my trial.
