ODJ: with us

Why do people get cancer? Why do the innocent suffer?

These are difficult realities that cannot be easily understood.But God understands, and He’s promised that there will come a time when all human pain will be ended (R

ODB: The Gift Of Tears

Icalled a longtime friend when his mother died. She had been a close friend of my mother, and now both had passed on. As we spoke, our conversation slipped easily into a cycle of emotion—tears of sorrow now that Beth was gone and tears of laughter as we recalled the caring and fun person she had been.Many of us have experienced that strange crossover from crying one moment and laughing the next.
