The Bible doesn’t lead us to believe it would be any different. That story moves from the expulsion from the garden to the first murder to slavery in Egypt to forty years in the desert. In the promised land Israel is surrounded by enemies and then forced into exile. Then John the Baptist is killed and Jesus is tortured and killed. So why do I, in name a Christian, so quickly complain when my life isn’t easy? As if the suffering were for Christ and only the resurrection for me.
