Dear Readers,
Just like failure we all go through suffering. It comes in many shapes or forms. As believers something like this is a very difficult thing to go through. The definition of suffering in the dictionary says this “the state of undergoing pain, distress, or hardship.” It’s something that we don’t like to deal with but it happens to be the reality that we all go through at one point or another. There are many examples about suffering in the Bible and this following individual’s story about suffering really comes to mind.
The person would be Job because he suffered so much when he was alive. His servants died, his children died and his livestock too. The list of the things he lost goes on, but how he dealt with the suffering that he went through was pretty neat if you ask me. At one point during this difficult time his own wife said that he should "curse God and die", however he didn’t do that at all! Job held on to his integrity which is really an admirable thing. He came out of it as a better person and received greater things than what he had before.
Another example of suffering would be Christ Himself because He suffered for all of us and it wasn’t a pretty sight to see. But in the end it was all part of God’s wonderful plan and He conquered death too. So keep that in mind when you're suffering or going through a hardship and know that you will come out stronger and better for it.
Romans 5:3 says this “ Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance;”. What that tells us is we will come out of suffering stronger than ever. God bless you all. Bye.
