And you call that suffering (Perspective Part II)

I just read this in Hebrews 10:32-36

³² Think back on those early days when you first learned about Christ.^[j] Remember how you remained faithful even though it meant terrible suffering. ³³ Sometimes you were exposed to public ridicule and were beaten, and sometimes you helped others who were suffering the same things. ³⁴ You suffered along with those who were thrown into jail, and when all you owned was taken from you, you accepted it with JOY. You knew there were better things waiting for you that will last forever.
 ³⁵ So do not throw away this confident trust in the Lord. Remember the great reward it brings you! ³⁶ Patient endurance is what you need now, so that you will continue to do God's will. Then you will receive all that he has promised.

Find joy even after loosing all of our possessions and being wrongfully imprisoned? I'm sure that kind of perspective comes with time but when the first mile seems difficult it's hard to imagine finishing the marathon. It all comes back to being confident that God will reward us for the trials we face today. We have to remember that at all costs or else failure becomes an option. That's just my perspective's continued shot in the dark for now.
