Romans 5:3-5

We also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.

Knock one down, and they all fall down... one after another. When suffering knocks you down, is that all there is?

Not according to your God. By faith, suffering serves another purpose — it produces perseverance... all the way down the chain until hope — a quality that shouldn't exist in a life of pain.

But it does. Why? Because suffering leads you to look beyond this life... to see your God working... and to trust that he has prepared heaven for you.

How is having spiritual hope in suffering different than looking for a silver lining?
