2 Corinthians 7:11 King James Version (KJV)
11 For behold this selfsame thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly sort, what carefulness it wrought in you, yea, what clearing of yourselves, yea, what indignation, yea, what fear, yea, what vehement desire, yea, what zeal, yea, what revenge! In all things ye have approved yourselves to be clear in this matter.
2 Corinthians 7:11 English Standard Version (ESV)
11 For see what earnestness this godly grief has produced in you, but also what eagerness to clear yourselves, what indignation, what fear, what longing, what zeal, what punishment! At every point you have proved yourselves innocent in the matter.

These are my thoughts, please share yours.
Grief often will drive a believer to the Lord, a closer walk with Him, We should use trials to grow even more in the faith and with Him, The more we get to know Him the more we know His love and love Him back and we become moved by this love instead of a fear for Him. We should have a boldness in the faith, often we don’t do out of fear. We wont be perfect but we should try to live in a way where the world cant point fingers at us.
