6 good reasons to rejoice in Christ when it's difficult:
1. We get to see God's goodness as he grips us in the fire.
2. Experiencing loss and grief makes you more attuned to the pain others carry.
3. Jesus suffered more than we can understand, but we can identify more with him when we suffer too.
4. Clinging to Christ out of desperation is a good thing. We should do this every day anyway. We are hopeless and desperate without him, after all.
5. The life of a Christian should be marked not by our love for God and each other in our prosperity, but by our love for God and each other in our suffering.
6. (You fill in the blank.)
