Chasidut for Berakhot 9:12

יכול אפילו לא קבלם מאהבה תלמוד לומר (ישעיהו נג, י) אם תשים אשם נפשו מה אשם לדעת אף יסורין לדעת

It is possible to think that this is so even with one who does not receive the chastenings in a spirit of love : therefore there is a teaching to say, "To see if his soul would offer itself in restitution" (ibid.). Just as the trespass-offering is brought voluntarily, so are the sufferings voluntarily received.
