Now if we are children, then we are heirs--heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.
Romans 8:17A rejoicing in pain sounds rather unusual, but not for one that sees the suffering as one that comes with the sharing of Jesus' glory. So when suffering for Him is seen as a promising thing, there is joy that surges through.
My heart has been broken with many blows in such a short time. When I do not understand and even when I do at the end, I realized how much God has been with me through it all. I therefore find comfort and security in the fact that suffering for His ways brings hope and joy within.
