For our sake, Christ went thru the greatest possible suffering to save us. His suffering was not only physical, but also mental, as many did not believe in him. Today he continues to suffer, as we continue dismissing him. The totality of all our sufferings in this life doesn't even come close to what he underwent and is experiencing still now. The least we could do is to deny ourselves, take up the cross, and follow him (Matthew 16:24). I don't mean that we go seek suffering, I only mean that we accept sufferings that come our way willingly for his sake.
