To live for the glory of God and not for the preservation of our lives and those whom we love.
What message do you amplify today?
--
God allowed suffering because it is at that moment you are given the 'spotlight' to shine for God, to give glory to God. People will await and see what is the message you have to amplify.
If you would curse God, hold bitterness against God, or continue to praise him.
Keep in mind, God does not owe us anything, he has all the right to inflict suffering as and when he wants. Yet out of grace and love, he choose to bless instead.
God did not promise a good life, He promise that troubles will come, but He will hold you through.
I wrote this down on my sermon feedback,
"The hand that shaped the stars, and formed the oceans, is the same hand that will guide me through the worst of storms, and give me warmth in the darkest of nights."

My message, "Live like Jesus will come today."
Scintillate, Sparkle, Shine
