It's not enjoyable to suffer, but suffering will come and we need to endure it patiently.
In the New Testament, Peter reminds us that there's no apparent glory in suffering wrongfully, "but if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God." He shows how Jesus Christ, the innocent Son of God, was unfairly reviled, but "reviled not again" and committed Himself to His just Heavenly Father.
The life of Jesus Christ is an example of how even when we do the right thing, there will be suffering, but Christ shows how we need to respond. Not with frustration, but with compassion. Comment below how Jesus has helped you find peace as you endure your trials!
