Made perfect through suffering

"In bringing many sons to glory, it was fitting that God, for whom and through whom everything exists, should make the author of their salvation perfect through suffering. Both the one who makes men holy and those who are made holy are of the same family. So that Jesus is not ashamed to call them brothers."Heb 2:10,11

I read this today and was struck by the idea that Jesus had to suffer to be made perfect. Jesus was God and therefore he was perfect, but I think that this suffering was to prove Jesus' faithfulness and obedience to the father. If Jesus was made perfect through suffering, how much more must we suffer.

"I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of sharing in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, and so somehow, to attain to the resurrection from the dead." Phil 3:10
