The Blessing of Suffering

IT IS blessed to be like Him in everything, even in suffering. There is a great want about all Christians who have not suffered. Some flowers must be broken or bruised before they emit any fragrance. All the wounds of Christ send out sweetness—all the sorrows of Christians do the same. Commend me to be a bruised brother, a broken reed—one like the Son of man. The Man of Sorrows is never far from him.—Robert Murray McCheyne.
