If we humble ourselves beneath the hand of God, we shall emerge from every chastening richly blessed and soon taste the fruit of suffering.
He allows suffering to enter our lives, so that we might reap great joy, fruit, and glory now and for all eternity - a blessed "afterwards".
God will be honored and His name as Father will be glorified when we consider how He has chastened us and think of the fruit, joy, and blessing His chastenings have brought us.
[Basilea Schlink, In Whom The Father Delights]
