The Keys are in the Suffering

About six months ago, we set out to ask readers about the problem of suffering. Certainly most of us have experience in this regard. One does not have to be homeless to encounter suffering, although it is quite prevalent in the lives of the poor. It appears as though the keys to sanctification and the keys to personal growth are in the suffering. The keys are hidden more in the valleys of our lives … more so than on the mountain tops.

The question was asked … Do you believe that the many forms of personal suffering in this life play a positive role in an individual's sanctification and that overall we should rejoice in trials and suffering?

There were 44 respondents - 81% (36) answered “Yes.” Only 18% (8) said “No.”
