Suffering invites us to place our hurts in larger hands. In Christ we see God suffering for us. And calling us to share in Gods suffering love for a hurting world. The small and even overpowering pains of our lives are intimately connected with the greater pains of Christ. Our daily sorrows are anchored in a greater sorrow and therefore a larger hope.
