Love and Suffering as Teachers
from Poets & Saints
ScriptureRomans 5:3–5 (NIV)We also glory in our sufferings,because we know that suffering produces perseverance;perseverance, character;and character, hope.And hope does not put us to shame,because God's love has been poured out into our heartsthrough the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.RefrainLove and suffering are teaching me.QuoteRichard Rohr, from The Universal Christ"In the practical order of life,if we have never loved deeply or suffered deeply,we are unable to understand spiritual things at any depth.Any healthy and true religion is teaching youhow to deal with suffering and how to deal with love.And if you allow this process with sincerity,you will soon recognizethat it is actually love and sufferingthat are dealing with you."
