4.5 - they are not impressed!
"The world is rarely impacted and drawn to Jesus Christ through the sight of Christians prospering. No, it’s through seeing believers suffering but not giving up that the skeptics change their minds. Perhaps the most important ministry you’ll ever have is when people see how you react to the pain they go through all of the time. Difficulty is the agent which often allows people an opportunity to see the reality of Jesus Christ most clearly."

YES! this reminded me of a quote that i heard piper say in a sermon jam. (thanks to eric park for the link)
6:30-6:43
"brothers and sisters, the sweetest fellowship with your Savior and your treasure that you will ever know, is the fellowship of His sufference."
proverbs 30:8
8 Keep falsehood and lies far from me;
give me neither poverty nor riches,
but give me only my daily bread.
amen.
