Do Not Waste Your Suffering

Summary

It teaches that suffering draws believers closer to God, provides opportunities to point others to Him, builds up hope in God's promises, and ultimately shapes believers to be more like Jesus Christ. Christians are encouraged to sanctify God in their hearts, be prepared to give a defense of their faith, and maintain a hopeful, humble, and reverent attitude through trials.
