Interestingly enough, this quote comes not from Charles Spurgeon, but from his beloved wife, Susannah. “The moment we come into any trial or difficulty, our first thought should be, not how soon can we escape from it, or how we may lessen the pain we shall suffer from it, but how can we best glorify God in it.” The bottom line is, we don’t like to suffer in any shape or form. But life doesn’t care about our wishes… and we all know this – adversity & troubles will follow us throughout our life here on earth. But we also understand that we learn much more in the valleys than the mountaintops. And our focus then should be in glorifying God in the midst of all our sufferings… not trying to avoid them.
