Christians will suffer; knowing what kind of suffering it is can help you endure your own affliction as well as comfort others in theirs. How are you and others around you afflicted? From Paul's suffering, we see that we can be afflicted for others' good, our growth, and God's glory. How could your affliction be used as others are watching? Don't waste your affliction; invest it. Don't lose heart.
