       I was trying to come up with an example in regard to this topic of suffering. One of my friends about a year and half ago in the Springtime lost his job in the I.T. world unexpectedly. And he began the search for a new job right away. After months and months of trying to find another I.T. job, he eventually ended up taking a lesser paying job at a local department store. He faithfully worked that job for many months without complaining. And after about a year and several months from the time he lost his original job, after lots of praying, God provided him with a bigger and better I.T. job at a better company than the one he worked at before. This worldly trial produced endurance, character, and hope for my friend. Now in the future, he can look back on this trial and take comfort in the fact that God will lead him through, even if it takes God longer than he expects, because he did back here. And those of us who prayed with him can look to his suffering, his trial, as well for encouragement.
