CWJC - Suffering & Blessing - Perspective from Julie


Suffering:
I sit here crying and asking God, “Why? Why do people have to suffer?” Brian is our nephew. He is very sick. He is in such pain. He has lots of things connected to him. He can’t even breathe on his own. Next to Brian is a baby that keeps on crying. He was burned so badly! Why? Why did my son get stabbed 12 times? I do not wish bad to any of the boys who did this to my son, but why does my son have to suffer? I don’t understand. Why do we have to suffer?


Blessing:
A Blessing is to know God! I never understood why people have to suffer, but now I know it’s because of the choices we make. And the choices we make are not the best. If we will just trust in God, not just when we are in need. If we could treat people the way we want to be treated. Open our hearts and tell the word of God to one another, the world would be so much better. We all have been Blessed with things but are not pleased, we want more, or think we need more, but as long as we have God in our lives we don’t need anything else. Knowing God is the biggest Blessing! He will always be with you. When we die we won’t hurt, suffer, or be sick anymore. So just believe and open your hearts and receive the Lord, you will have the best Blessing ever!
