My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. (James 1:2‑3)
To virtue, knowledge; and to knowledge, temperance; and to temperance, patience; and to patience, godliness. (2 Peter 1:5‑6)
Temptations press me sore; and yet I
   stand,
Upheld, patient, abiding in Thy rest;
Like lifted rock, amidst the surging sea,
Remaining firm, though often tempest
   pressed:
This is not chance, nor I; oh Christ, ’tis
   Thou;
I worship thee, and at Thy feet I bow.
