When receiving a difficult diagnosis, we sometimes wonder where God is. David says that God is with us in the valley of the shadow of death. We are never alone or abandoned by God and, no matter what, we can talk to God in prayer and seek peace through the Holy Spirit.
Many of the stories about Jesus in John help us better understand who God is and how he feels about us.
As many of us have experienced in 2020, life can have setbacks and struggles. Whether you’re in a season of plenty or want, we pray that these reflections will be a blessing to you.
Why does God allow suffering? That’s not an easy question to answer, but certain Bible passages tell us that God may display his works or deepen our belief in him during times of suffering. We can trust God for strength in our suffering, for we know that he has overcome the world.
We look forward to the time when death, mourning, crying, and pain pass away. And we persevere because we trust God’s promise that he will see us through until that day comes.
Amid the deep hurt, loss, and abandonment we may feel during a health crisis, we can still seek comfort and peace from God.
This month we will be exploring the book of Hebrews together. As we reflect on these passages, let’s ask God to show us clearly that Jesus Christ is everything we need for our lives.
