“There is no reason for God to test anyone if He knows our hearts and minds.”

The reason the teacher tests is not to determine what he/she knows, but whether you will do what you have learned or are about to learn.

Many times God gives the test, then the lesson.

Before I stepped backwards over the top lip of 130+ yard cliff, I THOUGHT I trusted my skills and my ropes.

One second after I stepped off, I KNEW I trusted my skills and my ropes.

Then I went for a stretch without doing any rope work at all. I had to learn to trust all over again.

God already knows. So what is God doing testing humans?
