Suffering Happens: So why me, Lord?
Manage episode 469458366 series 3612599
SHOW NOTES:
If you feel like you are suffering alone, then I ask you to listen to this episode. Suffering happens and you may feel that no one understands or that no one cares. But I offer to you that there is One who cares. You can cast all your cares on Him because He cares for you. That One who cares is God, the Creator of All Things.
Moreover, you can find a follower of Jesus who will care also. This friend will just sit with you as you become transparent and share that you are suffering. You need not put it in words. There is a follow of Jesus who will care and sit with you in your ordeal so that you are not alone.
Listen now! You can know that God sees you wherever you are and you are not alone.
