If we are to grow through trials, we must learn to view them correctly
First comes hurt, then can come anger or try to ignore it
Other turn to "grin and bear it" or "this too must past" - blocks us from growth
Garden of Gethsemance - Jesus expressed and dealt with emotional pain with prayer -
Hebrews 5:7-10
If Jesus had to suffer, how much will we need to be perfected -
Colossians 1:24
Trial both mature us and attract others at the same time
Rejoice in the sufferings -
1 Peter 4:13
Must have heaven's perspective in every situation
Even when can not figure out what God is doing - requires a child-like response
Why me? > Why not me?
