For in prosperity a man is often puffed up with pride, whereas tribulations chasten and humble him through suffering and sorrow. In the midst of prosperity the mind is elated, and in prosperity a man forgets himself; in hardship he is forced to reflect on himself, even though he is unwilling. In prosperity a man often destroys the good he has done; amidst difficulties he often repairs what he long since did in the way of wickedness. King Alfred (849-899 A.D.) Comment: When I suffer I remember the Cross and what He has done for me and through me! My suffering will never save anyone but it is still the best medicine you can take for the soul.
