There are situations in our life that can cause us pain and heartache.

May 22, 2025

There are situations in our life that can cause us pain and heartache. These situations can bring the worse out in us. Because when we are in pain, it seems as if we want others to be in pain too. In fact, there are times when we want to scream and shout at the unfairness of life. But that really does not get us anywhere nor solve the problem. As believers in God, we know that God is our source of strength. Even when life gets difficult and hard, we must remember life is life, there are moments of joy that are accented by times of undeniable pain and heartache. What God promises is that He will be with us in all situations and circumstance. Psalm 125:2 reads, “As mountains surround Jerusalem, so the Lord surrounds his people, both now and forevermore.” God is our shield and guards us with his providential hand, God does not leave us nor forsake us but guides us in all our ways. When you’re worried you can remember that God is surrounding you on all sides! And that is all we really need to know in life! For life will always get in the way. And for that reason, we must always strive to make the most out of every situation we are in. While holding on to God to see us through! God Bless. Amen.
