"HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN: "AFTER YOU HAVE SUFFERED A LITTLE WHILE" ?"

HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN THE SCRIPTURE: "AFTER YOU HAVE SUFFERED A LITTLE WHILE" ?
 
Dear Doves,
 
Does the following Scripture NOT ALLOW for the 'first-fruits' rapture to occur during the early part of the Seventieth Week of Daniel "AFTER WE HAVE SUFFERED A LITTLE WHILE", and then the pre-wrath rapture will occur just before mid-tribulation? Otherwise, how do you explain the Scripture: "AFTER YOU HAVE SUFFERED A LITTLE WHILE" ?
 
1 Peter 5:10
"And the God of all Grace, who called you to His Eternal Glory in Christ, AFTER YOU HAVE SUFFERED A LITTLE WHILE, will Himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast."
 
Believe me, I am not into suffering at all but according to 1 Peter 5:10 we ALL are going to "SUFFER A LITTLE WHILE"  before we are restored, made strong and steadfast before we are raptured. I don't believe that our "SUFFERING A LITTLE WHILE" applies to us AFTER we are raptured!
 
God promises us that we will NOT suffer the 'Wrath of God', but in 1 Peter 5:10 He tells us that we "WILL SUFFER A LITTLE WHILE" before we are raptured.
 
Come Lord Jesus!
