God allows suffering because he gives us choices Blue. But God does not let us suffer without his presence. He suffers with us. He allows suffering to build us up.
Through suffering, we draw closer to Christ, who suffered for us. Through suffering, we grow in Christ. “No pain, no gain” is still true. Through suffering, we become stronger. Sometimes, God allows pain and suffering as a test, and he rewards the faithful. When we're suffering, we seldom understand why. We cling to our hope and hold on to our faith, but we still wonder why. God knows what’s in store and he offers us hope. And sometimes that's all you have.......hope.
