Bible Question: in john 11:1-37 should life hurt this bad? |
Bible Answer: hi Aileen, welcome to the forum. In the midst of life we are in death. Death comes to all men because all have sinned. And sadly the pain is endured by those who are left behind. I presume you are fairly young. Am I to take it that you have suffered a bereavement? I know it can be so hard. But God promises to be with us in our bereavement. At least Martha had the comfort of knowing that Lazarus would arise at the last day, and had meanwhile gone to be with God. These are times that we have to learn to deal with. If used rightly they bring us closer to God. I have seen my father and mother go, and my elder sister. But be assured that the pain wears off. Meanwhile, 'trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding.' He suffers with you in your grief. It is times like this that make us stronger if we allow them to drive us into the arms of Jesus. GOD BLESS YOU. |
