Bible verses:

Romans 8:28

James 1:2-4

“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” - Romans 8:28

Your struggles are a part of your story and God's glory. Your pain, trouble, and heartache can work for your good and God's glory. God can use your painful experiences for a greater purpose.

I’m not suggesting you seek out pain. However, you can trust God during painful experiences. Painful experiences can contribute to the larger picture that God is working on.

James 1:2-4, explains that trials produce steadfastness and resilience. God is in control and can be trusted to work everything for your good and His glory.

We can also look to the story of Joseph which illustrates how God uses pain for good. Joseph had a rough life, including being sold into slavery, and being falsely accused and imprisoned. Through all of his trials, Joseph was faithful to God and God was faithful to Joseph. Joseph's story teaches us to trust God through all circumstances.

As children of God, we may struggle but we should not give up. Trust God and have faith that He will not waste your pain, but will use it for your good and His glory.
