Day 273 - Strength

Watercolor - Finally!
I believe God can use suffering to prepare us for something even more important down the road or perhaps to learn to treat ourselves and others better. With suffering comes growth, humility, patience and strength. There is a purpose to suffering and pain even though we may not know what that is until we get to the other side of it.

I thought a lot about strength today, especially the kind of strength that people develop only through suffering, trials and mistakes. If we can learn from the experience, help others because of it and spread compassion, I think God has worked the suffering out for His good purpose.
