#33 DEALING WITH SUFFERING
Life can be painful. Things don’t always go the way we want them to. Bad things happen to good people without any real reason. Believing in God won’t miraculously turn all your troubles into joy, but what God does offer is to stand with you through the trials and pain. Knowing we have someone with us makes the burden lighter. The good news is that bad times don’t last forever. There is light at the end of the tunnel for all who have faith.
