Without downplaying how difficult suffering can be and without falling into sadomasochism, the beauty of our faith teaches us that suffering does have meaning and it can be part of the medicine to heal us as we progress in sanctification.
We can have two choices in life - to become victims to suffering and get better over it, or we can humbly accept it knowing it is part of God’s Divine Providence to advance us on the path of holiness. This can be a tough doctrine to accept, that is why it requires humility and faith. Humility to accept that we don’t understand God’s ways, and faith to accept with trust that God is Good, He loves us and knows what is best for us.
