From the world’s perspective, there are many places you can go to find comfort. But there is only one place you will find a hand to catch your tears and a heart to listen to your every longing. True peace comes only from God.

The Bible is clear that those who fail to heed the Lord's discipline - whether nations, cities, or individuals - suffer devastating consequences.

Regardless of the source of our pain, we must accept that God knows, God loves, and God is at work.

I would never discredit reading the Scriptures, but it is important to meditate on it.
