1 Peter 5:10 (ESV) After you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself restore, confirm, strengthen, & establish you. 1 Peter 4:12-13 Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial when it comes upon you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you. But rejoice insofar as you share Christ’s sufferings, that you may also rejoice & be glad when His glory is revealed. Rom 8:18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us. Matt 11:28 Come to me, all who labor & are heavy laden, & I will give you rest. — Suffering is part of this life, but God tells us if we will come to Him we will find rest in the struggle of life.
