How is it that Paul could write, "...For I delight in weaknessess, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties"  (2 Cor. 12:10)

He always seemed to have a positive attitude when things were going badly.  Did he enjoy pain?  Did he enjoy losing?  No, not at all.  But he was tuned in with the good news of Jesus Christ.  If all you see and hear is what's around you, then you will become discouraged and feel bad.  But if we hear (listen) to the voice of God, there will be ways for rejoicing.
