Life - Suffering

Suffering and the Divine

The Divine does not desire for us to suffer yet suffering still occurs during the unfolding of our lives.

The Divine does not use suffering as a teaching tool, but through suffering we may learn. The diving doesn’t use suffering as a tool to teach others a lesson, but through suffering others may learn. 

Suffering is not designated by the Divine as punishment, but rather suffering can be the consequence of our poor judgement, recklessness or even selfish priorities. 

Through suffering Trust may be strengthened but suffering is not a consequence of shaky or fragile Trust. 

Sometimes it is through suffering that the Divine’s purposes are achieved but the Benevolent Spirit does not depend on, nor distribute suffering to achieve the purposes of the One. Malice and malevolence are not the scheduled pilot and co-pilot for flying divine purposes to there destination. 

Suffering can either destroy us or add meaning to our lives bringing out a rich tapestry of life that is discovered through no other path.
