Praying Through the Pain

Though we have trials and sorrows in this life, as believers we can find comfort by remembering that our Lord Jesus suffered too and modeled for us how to stay connected to our Heavenly Father even in the midst of the trial. We can have an effective prayer practice when we do as Jesus did, by understanding God is good towards us, surrendering our hearts and our wills to His will, and learning to seek His face before His hand. As believers we are called to support one another in the trials, we need arms to hold us and someone to sit with us in our grief.
