Based on Barton’s latest sermon on God’s Hand in our Suffering, here is a great song that emphasizes the same truth, namely that God sovereignly and wisely uses even our suffering and pain as a means to grow us into Christ-like maturity. This song “I Asked the Lord” is based off a hymn by John Newton by the same name “I Asked the Lord That I Might Grow” (aka. “Prayer Answered by Crosses”).
