Hi mamas

I recently lost my best friend to cancer, she had been battling for 2 years. This week lost my brother in-law who has left his wife and 6 month old behind. Their deaths have triggered something in me and left me questioning alot of things. My faith has really been tested. Some of which include why does God not heal others ? Why is there so much suffering in this world? For example,the other day in church ,some orphans from Africa who came to perform and were telling their stories, about how they were abandoned as babies and have suffered a-lot,it was so heart breaking🥲. There are millions of children in poverty , being abused etc, Why should kids so much? Then theres the issue around race, why has God allowed black people and other minority groups be treated so unfairly for centuries? Sorry this sounds all over the place. Its just the many thoughts going on inside my head. I know some of these thoughts are coming from the enemy but it’s just been a-lot and has left me thinking what is the purpose of life ? Has anyone ever felt their faith being tested in this way? Can anyone send some encouraging verses? I love God and trust his promises but I wonder why he lets some things happen?

After losing so many people in life, and I felt like that too! Pls message me

I will say...Jesus put ALL of this on his brutally abused body when He was on the cross. He didn't just feel the pain of personal betrayal & all our sins...He took the weight of the whole world...all the injustice, evil, pain...He saw/knew us all on that Friday. And He asked God to forgive us all because we don't understand what we are doing...His love is beyond comprehension. He made Himself a bag of flesh to save us, eternally, from the suffering that goes BEYOND human death. He knew there was this pain...and THEN some. He absolutely acknowledged it on the cross. And sent His Holy Spirit to us, to help us in the meantime. He's coming SO soon. We are the last age to endure. Its all about to be made new, because He DID handle it. I am so sorry for the sadness and devastation you & your family are experiencing. Make no mistake, He cares deeply about this too! Hold on sister, we're almost home.

@🌻Desy🌻 Thank you so much for your comment. I really needed to be reminded of this especially at this time of the year (Easter). Jesus knows everything and he has felt the pain. As the bible says He wept when Lazarus died, so he Knows! It doesn’t help that I am an empath too, so I get affected by other peoples pain. I am grateful for my life and all that God has blessed me with. I just wish there wasn’t so much pain, suffering and injustice in the world. God help us all💔🥹

Yes! Even knowing the Father would resurrect His friend...it deeply grieved Him still! That just reminded me of another song that was written from this perspective of grief...
