2 Corinthians 4:17

17This light, temporary nature of our suffering is producing for us an eternal weight of glory, far beyond any comparison,Matt 5:12; Rom 8:18; 1Pet 1:6; 5:10

1 Peter 1:6-7

6In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you have to suffer various kinds of trials,Matt 5:12; Rom 12:12; 2Cor 4:17; 6:10; James 1:2; 1Pet 4:13; 5:10 7so that the genuineness of your faith, which is more valuable than gold that perishes when it is tested by fire, may result in praise, glory, and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed.Job 23:10; Ps 66:10; Prov 17:3; Isa 48:10; Zech 13:9; Rom 2:7, 10; 1Cor 3:13; 4:5; 2Thes 1:7-12; James 1:3, 12; 1Pet 4:12

1 Peter 4:13

13Instead, because you are participating in the sufferings of Christ, keep on rejoicing, so that you may be glad and shout for joy when his glory is revealed.Acts 5:41; Rom 8:17; 2Cor 1:7; 4:10; Phil 3:10; Col 1:24; 2Tim 2:12; James 1:1-13; 1Pet 1:5-6; Rev 1:9
