Consider it wholly joyful, my brethren,
whenever you are enveloped in or encounter
trials of any sort or fall into various temptations.
Be assured and understand
that the trial and proving of your faith
bring out endurance and steadfastness and patience.
James 1:2-3

"Stonecrop" is from the Middle English and literally means
"sprouting
from the stone,"
a reference to its commonly being seen
growing amongst
stones
(which provide the drainage that stonecrop plants crave).
