Faith Walk: God Understands
Author: Dr. George FlatteryWhen we hurt emotionally, we have a God who understands.
In the New Testament we read of Jesus grieving, mourning and crying. It is never “unspiritual” to embrace the pain that we feel by expressing it through the very human emotions of sadness. God grieves with us when we weep. He feels our pain when we walk through fear, worry and depression. Psalms 34:18: The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” God says that we are never closer to him than when we suffer.
