Clearly one aspect of this mortal existence is to deal with suffering. We all will suffer in various ways. Paul in 2 Corinthians discusses that suffering can be a blessing and we can be comforted. Don’t forget that often WE are the ones that must comfort those around us in their suffering to offer the helping hand and in doing so we may find comfort from our own suffering whatever it may be.
