Excerpt:
There are times when God does cause his people grief because of their wrong acts. As Hebrews also affirms, God disciplines us so we can become more like him (Heb. 12:7-11). So, it’s possible that our suffering is the Lord’s way of helping us to grow in holiness...
But the Bible cites many other causes for suffering. Don't automatically assume that God is punishing you. For the next three days, we’ll explore some reasons that God allows suffering. We pray that this plan will help you walk by faith in the living God, whose faithfulness will not fail.
