SHARING IN SUFFERING

According to the Bible, we’re called to share in suffering for the gospel—not for weirdness’ sake, but for righteousness’ sake. Like the pressure that forms diamonds or the pain that builds muscle, God uses these challenges to unleash His power in us. Yes, the process may be painful and pointed, but it has a purpose. That purpose is that suffering leads to something beautiful according to His plan. “But share with me in the sufferings for the gospel according to the power of God” (2 Timothy 1:8).
