We suffer because we live in a fallen world. None of us escapes the impact of pain and sorrow and even outright evil. And honestly, this is probably one of the hardest things to reconcile for anyone who believes that there is meaning in this life. Sometimes we just desperately just want to know why...
But just because we don't understand all the ways of God, doesn't mean that we cannot wrestle with evil well, that we can't struggle well, and that we can't learn to move through suffering that draws us closer to Jesus and helps us walk with other people more richly.
