"The most remarkable thing about suffering is that God can use it for our good."
Billy Graham, Billy Graham in Quotes
"Evil and suffering are real . . . They aren’t an illusion, nor are they simply an absence of good. We are fallen creatures living in a fallen world that has been twisted and corrupted by sin, and we all share in its brokenness. Most of all, we share in its tragic legacy of disease and death."

Billy Graham, Billy Graham in Quotes

It does teach that the Christian can face tribulation, crisis, calamity, and personal suffering with a supernatural power that is not available to the person outside of Christ."
