A Nisayon Brings Out the Untapped Greatness of a Person And Is a Blessing in Disguise

The Sefer HaYashar of Rabeinu Tam says that a person should expect Nisyonos throughout his life and not be Nis'pael from them. I would add that everyone should carry around him imaginary: תוף ומחול musical instruments to be ready to rejoice when he conquers his fears, and his true Bitachon comes out. After passing the Nisayon of the Akeida, Hashem told Avraham Avinu: עתה ידעתי כי ירא אלקים אתה (Now I KNOW that you are a Y’rei Elokim). A Nisayon brings out the untapped greatness of a person, and is a blessing in disguise.
