The Divine Purpose of Suffering

“Look to the Reward”



Questions to Ask Yourself When Suffering:

  1. What is God doing here?

  2. What is he teaching me?

  3. What sin is he exposing to me?

  4. How is he drawing me closer to Him?

  5. In what ways is He making me more like Jesus?

  6. How is He preparing me for some future glorrious task?

  7. How am I responding to it?

  8. How should I respond to it?

  9. Am I learning from it?

  10. Does my response demonstrate faith, love for God and for others, Christ-like character, values, commitment and priorities?

  11. Can I see ANY WAY God can take the pain in this situation and make something good out of it?
