Romans 5:1-5 Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Through Him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God. Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.
Suffering doesn't feel pleasant at the time. We can either run to God or away from Him when we encounter suffering. Suffering can be spiritual, physical, emotional, ect. Whatever the kind of suffering, trial, or temptation you may face; The Lord is there waiting for you to cry out to Him. He can strengthen you, and teach you through the struggle. Remember, God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit!
