Like A Needle Scratching A Record

When suffering enters our life it's like the jarring sound of a needle on a turntable scratching across a vinyl record. However, the apostle doesn't see this as being, necessarily, a bad thing. In fact, among other things, it causes us to call out to our Savior in prayer. It also brings into high definition those words we confess when we say that Jesus "suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried."
