God is Love, 1 John 4:1-12
Andy Williams
How can we trust God when we don’t know the ‘why’ of suffering? By encountering him face to face, as the Almighty ruler of all things.
Suffering, and the isolation that comes with it, can easily lead to despair, but hope comes from a heavenly Advocate who can take up our cause.
James: “You have heard of Job’s perseverance and have seen what the Lord finally brought about. The Lord is full of compassion and mercy.”
The innocent suffer, we don’t always know why, but it’s safe to express complaint, confusion and grief to God.
