A Fellowship of Suffering

“For to you in has been granted on behalf of Christ, not only to
believe in Him, but also to suffer for His sake.”
Philippians 1:29 

Often people will come to the Lord and think that once they become a Christian their problem will go away. And, unfortunately, some preachers lead people to believe this.

However, the Christians life is not exempt from problems and trials. In fact, becoming a Christian often brings with it a long list of problems and difficulties. Yet, God is bigger than our problems and at work in the midst of our most severe trials.
