Section 6/7: The Problem of Suffering

How Can God Work Suffering for Good?

Can we really believe that all of our suffering will turn out for good? Well, we can see something like this at work in our own experience. Has a terrible situation in your life ever resulted in personal growth that wouldn’t have come about otherwise? Has the suffering you’ve experienced given you wisdom, compassion, and maturity? Remember, God’s perspective is eternal. Out of love for us, He works everything together so that all of our suffering ultimately turns out for good.
