Knowing God sees our sufferings and remembers his promises to deliver us should impact us in 4 ways:

1. Even in a hostile world, we must stand firm for what's biblically right! [1:1-2:2]
2. We must trust God's ability to work even in ways beyond our understanding. [2:3-10]
3. We must do God's work in God's ways. [2:11-22]
4. We must understand that God's timing is different from ours. [2:23-25]
