Suffering is part of your training.
God is treating you as his sons.
Oh God, everything is so draining.
Weighed down with years’ heavy tons.
Fair enough if I’ve done something wrong.
But what if it’s just fate or ill chance.
Now we are weak, we used to feel so strong.
Will it soon be over , the dance.
But all that matters is acting with integrity.
Then at the end you can say you’ve done your best.
We may at least say we have not been petty.
And we can just leave all the rest.
Does suffering really do you good.
Or are we just a piece of driftwood.
……
Painful punishment
Does it do us all some good
Or what is the point
….
See Hebrews 12: 5- 7, 11-13
