“Suffering is not God’s desire for us, but it occurs in the process of life. Suffering is not given to teach us something, but through it we may learn. Suffering is not given to punish us, but sometimes it is the consequence of our sin or poor judgment. Suffering does not occur because our faith is weak, but through it our faith may be strengthened. God does not depend on human suffering to achieve his purposes, but sometimes through suffering his purposes are achieved. Suffering can either destroy us, or it can add meaning to our life.”

“Let us be reminded again that God’s greatest gift for the world was Jesus Christ His Son. The greatest gift that Jesus could give to His Church was the Holy Spirit. And the greatest gift that the Holy Spirit could give to the individual believer was his or her own spirit language. Now we understand better why the Holy Spirit chose the gift of tongues as the best gift He could give to those whom Jesus redeemed by His own life’s blood. Let us give a great big thank you to the Holy Spirit for His tremendous and all-sufficient gift.”
