And I know for us as we walk through pain as we walk through hardship our natural questions are to say well where is God and why is this happening and those are fine questions that those are okay to ask but I would ask another question though too and it's this what is my hardship doing to me what kind of person am I becoming through this difficulty life is hard but Paul says this and we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him who have been called according to his
purpose okay there's a purpose for pain and we know that God is working in us no matter what we face no matter what we go through no matter how hard it is we know that God is working hard for us
