God’s Word  warns us not to be surprised by trials, hardships and the difficulties of this life, but to rejoice in the fact that we suffer on Christ’s behalf…and all this so that on the day that we stand before His throne, we can be filled with joy at His glorious revelation to the world (1 Peter 4:12-13)

“Like the storm on Galilee, it matters little what we do, only what He will do. By keeping our eyes on him we can be free of fear or anxiety no matter what we might encounter in this life. “~Wayne Jacobsen

Suffering is a teacher.  We can teach our children by example that God is with us every moment of every day and the fruit will be joy, peace, and happiness.
