Think of a time when you’ve experienced deep suffering. He’s faithful to his plans and his people. While there are many seasons in which we can’t imagine how God could do this, it’s important we cling to his promises. Instead, he offers us himself-an ever-faithful and ever-loving Father who promises to work all things together for eternal joy. Our world is broken and we’re impacted by our sin and the sin of others, but God doesn’t leave us without hope in the midst of deep pain. We’re all going to face suffering at some point, and the best thing to prepare for it is to form a theology of suffering. “How Firm a Foundation” - Norton Hall Band “Psalm 126” - Bifrost Arts & Molly Parden “How Can God Be Sovereign and Good and Allow Suffering?” - John Piper Hope When It Hurts - Kristen Wetherell & Sarah Walton
