Beauty In Suffering

Ah but when youre a Christian suffering has a way of restoring your lost beauty in Christ.

Beauty in suffering. When Bridget had to have tough conversations with others she noticed she would stiffen. I wonder would I stay if you asked for it. Here is how beauty gave her strength in suffering.

You turn my body into knots and tell me its a blessing. The family of Abraham Mary help me see the beauty when there is suffering. There is no true love save in suffering and in this world we have to choose either love which is suffering or happiness.

But the world tells you that suffering like you know deep disappointment and loss itll only diminish and disfigure your beauty. So it is not suffering that lessens beauty. But there is also beauty down there in the dirt of suffering.

You still create the shape and I ask for it. It is not making light of suffering to say that there is still beauty on the earth. Oh God Citizens Ive always so loved how this song begins.

Beauty and suffering can and do exist side-by-side and always have. To understand the beauty of suffering you first need to understand why pain even exists. That is why we never give up.
