Topic: God Is Help Because God Is Love

We can connect to God in our suffering. This connection to God may not happen at first when we suffer. In our suffering, we may feel God has abandoned us. In our suffering, we may feel God has forsaken us. On the surface, this idea of connecting to God in our suffering may seem a little crazy considering we are trying to connect ourselves to an invisible God. However, our faith in God comes about because we can make connections to Him, even in suffering. Somehow, we are all touched by God deep within our life. When we see or hear about Christ's suffering on the cross, we are all touched by Him. You can live with His touch every minute of your life, even in your suffering. Living with His touch while in your suffering is not easy. Living with His touch in your suffering takes work to defeat the darkness. However, if you are willing to be the kind of person Christ wants you to be, and if you are willing to do the things Christ wants you to do, you will have the power to prosper even in the bad times. Because we can all somehow be touched by God, we find in His touch our hope for tomorrow. Some people do not believe in God because they refuse to admit God touched them. To find hope in life when things come unglued or when we suffer, we all need to remember what God is like. God is love inside of us. His unfailing love gives us the fuel to keep going day after day. His unfailing love is fuel keeping us going in spite of enormous difficulties and adversities. Because we have permitted ourselves to take the risk of letting ourselves be touched by God, we know the love He is becomes reality. We get our hope for the future because we feel His love inside of us today. Because we have His love in us today we can see tomorrow. Because we have His love in us today we have expectations about good things happening tomorrow. Because we have His love in us today we can draw a map into our future. Because we have His love in us today we live in His Light every minute, even in our suffering.
