Someone shared this with me recently and it is a nice perspective on why we suffer.
Praise be to the God and Father
of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who
comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble
with the comfort we ourselves receive from God. For just as we share abundantly
in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ. If we
are distressed, it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it
is for your comfort, which produces in you patient endurance of the same sufferings
we suffer. And our hope for you is firm, because we know that just as you share
in our sufferings, so also you share in our comfort.

Corinthians 1:3-7
