The world in which we live truly is a veil of tears. Christ said, “…in the world you have tribulation…” (John 16:33)- this is not a promise, but a statement of fact. In this life, there is going to be suffering. In fact, Paul said, “For to you it has been granted for Christ’s sake, not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer for His sake.” (Philippians 1:29) If it wasn’t bad enough that the world in which we live is fallen, get this: one of the reasons we have been saved is that we might suffer!
Now the suffering we undergo is vast and varied. Some of it will be on account of:
• Our own sin, 1 Peter 2:20a. • Another’s sin, Jonah 1:10. • The state of sin and misery into which we have been born, Matthew 6:34.
Yet it is God’s plan to use ALL OF IT for His glory and our good.
