Just because we follow Christ and believe in His promises is no insurance policy against a traumatic event or chaos. We live in a sin embedded world with sinful intentions by many. We are also fallible and weak, susceptible to being victimized. But our Lord will NEVER leave us or forsake us. We can trust Him to give us the grace we need for the moment, even during pain and suffering. I used to think that there was something wrong with me when trouble arrived. What hadn’t I done right this time? What was wrong with my prayer life? But God is not a crocheting old man wanting to ‘get me’ in a game of chance. He loves me despite my sin or weakness and the trouble around me.
