Blessed is the 1 who perseveres under challenges


12 Blessed is the one who perseveres under challenges because, by persevering, that individual gets to really live.
13 When tempted, no one should say, “God or Devil is tempting me.” For neither God nor Devil tempt anyone; 
14 but each person is tempted when they are dragged away & enticed by their own destructive desires in thoughts-&-words.
15 Then, after their own destructive desires have conceived actions-&-habits, they gives birth to character-&-destiny of a wasted-life; and a wasted-life, when it is full-developed, results in a miserable death.
--James 1:12-15 (Vinnieosophy Version)
