This verse is often taken out of context in an attempt to bring comfort, hope, and encouragement to those who are going through difficult times in life due to health, finances, relationships, or any of as number of difficulties that seem to continually be a part of life. As important as seeking to encourage others is, this verse isn't dealing with the overwhelming abundance of difficulties, heartaches, and upsets that we all face. This verse isn't dealing with the "trials" of life, it is dealing with the "temptations" of life; two very different subjects. This episode put's I Corinthians 10:13 back in it's context.
