"Blessed be GOD, even the FATHER our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the GOD of all comfort." Vs 3
When we suffer for doing right we should be glad because we are sharing in the suffering of Christ; and therefore we will share also in the glory of Christ. (find scripture)
GOD allows us to endure suffering so that when we've come out of it- and GOD does comfort and support us right throughout our suffering- we can then support and comfort others who go through suffering. -Psalm 46: 1. We can sympathize with them and give testimony of how GOD saw them through all their troubles. Suffering can make you into a better person. It helps to mould you into the person GOD wants you to be. GOD wnats the very best for you. HE wants you to become the very best that you can be.
"For I know the thoughts I have of you."
Jeremiah 29: 11
"they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength..." (Isaiah 40:31
In the midst of trouble we can rest secure in the knowledge that "No weapon formed against thee shall prosper". For GOD promises that HE "will never leave us(you) nor forsake us(you)"
HE aims to transform you, reform you
