How do we know that suffering refines us?

Answered in 1 source

Suffering refines believers, producing patience and deeper reliance on God.

Scripture associates suffering with refinement, indicating that trials are part of God's purpose in our lives. As shared during the sermon, 'tribulation worketh patience,' encapsulating the transformative power of hardship. Through these experiences, believers can grow closer to God, gain spiritual maturity, and learn to cast their anxieties upon Him. Such refinement is not only necessary but part of God's loving plan to shape us into the likeness of His Son, Jesus Christ.
