+When we become Christians, we might be tempted to cling to a false belief that our lives will be problem-free. But the truth is: everyone experiences suffering.
+However, when you belong to Jesus, you don't go through painful situations alone. And whatever hardships you face-it's not the end of your story.
+God sees us on the best and worst days of our lives, but His love for us does not change. He understands our deepest suffering because He experienced it Himself when He became Immanuel, "God with us."
+When we feel overwhelmed by our circumstances, God can show us how to find rest. When we give our burdens to Him, He can refresh our heavy hearts.
+God can handle our pain because He understands our hardships.
+He is trustworthy and faithful. Even when our circumstances feel dark and hopeless - we can trust that He will carry us through every situation.
+Suffering is a part of being human, but we honor God by handing our hardships over to Him, and looking for the ways that He is at work in our situations.
+Today, spend some time with God and talk to Him about your hurts. Ask Him to comfort you, and tell Him what you need in order to face your circumstances with courage and strength.
๐ God, when I experience suffering, I have the opportunity to glorify You with my words and actions.
+Help me to recognize the grace You give to help me through my circumstances.
+In all situations, allow me to remember that You are faithful to those who follow You. In Jesus’ name, Amen. ๐☝️๐ช⚡๐ชถ๐
