No One Like To Suffer.
If It Were Up To Us,
We Would Probably
Choose To Enjoy Nothing
But Ease And Prosperity.
If Lessons Need To Be
Learned, Don't Make Us
Learn Them The Hard Way!
But The Inescapable Truth,
In Principle As Well As In
Our Experience, Is That
The Pain Of Life Can Be A
Great Teacher.
When We're In Pain, We're
More Likely To Look Beyond
Ourselves For Help.
Our Neediness Can Drive Us
To God, Both For Comfort
And For His Wise Solutions
To Our Problems.
A Sincere Follower Of The
Lord Is Willing To Be Taught
Wisdom And To Look For The
Lessons In Affliction.
When We're Open To The
Hidden Gifts Of Coming To
The End Of Our Rope, We
Can Actually Be Grateful
For Our Trials < Ro 5:3-5 >
