In this video (3 minute mark), Dr. Dennis Charney explains the “Stockdale Paradox,” a way of thinking that acknowledges the challenge being faced while also keeping an attitude and confidence of persevering through it, as opposed to blind optimism.
The Lord does not ask us to ignore our suffering, rather, he calls us to have confidence and faith that he will bring us through suffering.
