I am young. I don't know much.

But I have learned.

God. In His sovereignty. Has purpose.

In suffering.

God. Has purpose.

In suffering.

Walking through suffering with Christ & one another will draw us closer & make us stronger. Closer & stronger than we ever dreamed.

Walking through suffering with Christ & one another will grow greater love within us. Greater than we ever imagined.

God can do anything, you know—far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest dreams! He does it not by pushing us around but by working within us, his Spirit deeply and gently within us. Ephesians 3:20 (MSG)

Glory to God.

In suffering.

Dear friends, do not be surprised at the painful trial you are suffering, as though something strange were happening to you. But rejoice that you participate in the suffering of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed when his glory is revealed. 1 Peter 4:12-13 (NIV)

Glory to God.

In suffering.
