Romans 5:3-5 We rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance character; and character, hope. And hope does not dissapoint us because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us. Suffering is required to have perseverance, character, and hope. Without suffering we would not have these three things. So when you suffer, just know that God is using that to make you a better, stronger person. Ask yourself.. Is it really worth ridding yourself of suffering if it means no perseverance, character, or hope? ~God promised a safe landing, not a smooth sailing~
