I really like this picture (which I found on the @fortismerers page)
To me, I guess it suggests that suffering is part of God's plan, showing that He will ultimately use it for good purpose and to strengthen us. This is much like St Irenaeus' theory I suppose. I like how despite the 'brokenness', the pot actually looks richer and fuller after the gold - a good metaphor for human suffering perhaps..?
Aargh, Grace, the picture hasn't come through!
