Affliction Quote by John Flavel
“No friend sympathizes so tenderly with his friend in affliction as does Jesus. In all our afflictions, He afflicted. He feels all our sorrows, wants and burdens as His own. Whence it is that the sufferings of believers are called the sufferings of Christ.”
![“[Suffering] brings out graces that cannot be seen in a time of health. It is the treading of the grapes that brings out the sweet juices of the vine; so it is affliction that draws forth submission, weanedness from the world, and complete rest in God. Use afflictions while you have them.” quote by Robert Murray McCheyne](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/7e2/robert-murray-mccheyne-40307_health_suffering-brings-out-graces-that-cannot_2543652.jpg)
![“All the dark, intricate, puzzling providences at which we were sometimes so offended...we shall [one day] see to be to us, as the difficult passage through the wilderness was to Israel, "the right way to the city of habitation".” quote by John Flavel](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/58c/john-flavel-4295_christian_all-the-dark-intricate-puzzling-providen_333825.jpg)
