Answer Details
According to Peter, Christians should rejoice in the sharing of Christ's suffering so that they may be glad when his glory is revealed. This means that Christians should not be discouraged or dismayed when they go through difficult times, but should rather be happy because they are following in the footsteps of Christ who also suffered for their sake. They should look forward to the day when Christ's glory is revealed and they will share in that glory, knowing that their suffering was not in vain.
