Struggles  The parable of the butterfly.

Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If God allowed us to go through our life without any obstacles, it would cripple us. We would not be as strong as what we could have been...and we could never fly!

Understanding Adversity  by Jason Park

Understanding that adversity will come does not necessarily make it easy to face.
There are two important concepts that can help us understand adversity. The first is that just because you are righteous doesn't mean that bad things will not happen to you. .... The second concept to help us understand adversity is that tragedy does not always come as a punishment for sin.
