Regarding the now time, think about how trying the circumstances can be that God allows into our lives. Loss of loved ones, being held captive in prisons and harsh treatment by those who don't know the love of God, fighting an illness or disease, being lonely or discouraged. So many of these things are meant to build us up in reliance on God through faith, and to help us acquaint with the sufferings of Christ, and ultimately be thankful for everything in every circumstance. It is not easy to consider it all joy, but we are encouraged to because it is possible to.
