"The way of contentment to a carnal heart is only the removing of the affliction. O that it may be gone! 'No', says the gracious heart, 'God has taught me a way to be content though the affliction itself still continues.'"
Romans 8 teaches us that we, through the power of the Spirit, are more than conquerors even in the midst of affliction. Though God may never remove the affliction in this lifetime, He has graciously granted us rich spiritual blessings so that we do not merely survive during trials, but we thrive.
