In christian life every day is not christmas, you may be suffering.You need to get yourself rooted to sucha life,and can you call yourself a christian when you don't serve Him.

I understand what you are saying. The work of god is suffering since as a christian we are always being tested and at times we suffer for our beliefs we are in consistent training with our religion and our services are endless. We are taught to love forgive and live the way the bible talks about however with all of the self will we are given it does get hard at time to live the way we should and all the test that we are put through is really way to much unless you truly have faith and the end result will tell you how well you do. All the suffering training and services we go through will have a wonderful pay off at the end of time so it will be worth it all.

Your question makes no sense But if you are asking if one who does the Lord's work must suffer, train others and provide services (such as counseling) then I guess the answer would be..... An individual who works for the Lord gives their heart and soul and time to serve God by spreading the word, counseling others, praying, teaching, holding hands, being a shoulder to cry on and a myriad of other things. I am sure that they "suffer" to a degree by being so selfless. The question is Do YOU accept ???

Suffering succotash! Sounds like a job I had once as a waiter at a Catskills resort.

No, sorry, not into fantasies, delusions and fairy tales. Try the gullible idiots down the street with the W stickers and Nascar numbers on their vehicles.

You should read some teachings of a man named RUMI.In his poetry he would explain to your heart that your sufferings and contantly asking yourself "why" was HIS way of calling.

The work of God is defined by Him and different for everyone.

Suffering - for what end result?
Training - for what?
Services - for what reason?
