One bible teacher writes: “We don’t look, act, or dress alike. We have different tastes in food, books, cars and music. We work at different jobs…enjoy different hobbies …but one thing we have in common. We know what it means to hurt.
“Suffering is universal. Tears are the same for Jews, Muslims, Christians, white, black, brown, children, adults, and the elderly. When life hurts and dreams fade, we express our anguish in different ways, but each of us knows the sting of pain, heartache, disease, disaster, trials and suffering.
A great preacher of yester-year once said to a group of aspiring young ministers, “Preach to the suffering and you’ll never lack a congregation.” There’s a broken heart in every pew. Suffering is the common thread in all our garments.
Meditation: “God, whom I serve in my spirit in preaching the gospel of his Son, is my witness how constantly I remember you 10 in my prayers at all times“. – Romans 1:9
