Phil 3:10<br />We must participate in His suffering to know the power of His resurrection.<br /><br />"Now if we are children, then we are heirs--heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory." Romans 8:17<br /><br />I believe that although God allows & even intends for us to face suffering, it is always and only meant for our good as we become more like Christ. So, I do believe that God wants His children to experience the best and have a full and abundant life, I just think that looks much different than we think it does. It is much deeper, much fuller.
