Joy in suffering? Those two words sound like the opposite of each other! Suffering is like anything else we encounter, it only makes sense when we look to God and see what Scripture has to say. As we read various verses it may seem that the command for us is to be happy and excited about suffering. That is not the case. We can have joy and hope because we know the end of the story. Bernadette Todd has much experience in choosing joy in her suffering.

So we rejoice. We rejoice, as Bernadette said, because we trust that what God says in His Word is true. We rejoice because we know that rejoicing is not about our feelings or our abilities to perform. Instead, rejoicing is about resting in Jesus and remembering the joy that awaits us. We fix our eyes on Jesus because He suffered on our behalf. He is our perfect model. He was looking toward the joy set before Him. That was His Journey Through Suffering.
looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.
My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.
Let me hear in the morning of your steadfast love, for in you I trust. Make me know the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul.
