How do we know that God loves us during our trials?
Answered in 2 sources
God's love is evident in His consistent chastening of His children, aiming for their growth and holiness (Hebrews 12:6).
The Bible teaches that God's love manifests through His discipline; as Hebrews 12:6 states, 'For whom the Lord loveth, He chasteneth.' This discipline is not vindictive but corrective, aimed at refining and sanctifying believers. The experience of chastening reminds us that we are God's children, as He instructs and corrects us for our benefit. In the midst of trials, believers can find comfort in the understanding that God's purpose is to bring about holiness and increase our reliance on Him. Ultimately, every chasten is designed for our profit, leading us into a deeper relationship with Christ.
