    • Our pain and struggles can sidetrack us into think Our pain and struggles can sidetrack us into thinking that God isn't fair, he isn't keeping his promises, and he doesn't care. He cares. He already proved that by dying on the cross. He doesn't have anything else to prove. The pain and problems in this world are because of us, not God. Could God make all tragedy disappear? Sure. But that's how he started the world--in perfection--and we screwed that up in no time. And is it love if you make someone love you back? Our pain and trauma are the result of human sin. Once we get over ourselves, we're free to be thankful, repentant, and obedient to an all-powerful God who wants to take our mess and transform it into something beautiful. God is all about redemption. It's who he is and who has always been. Give him your mess and let him redeem it. Your life will surpass what you would have prescribed. It will have eternal value and affect generational change. That's who God is. #sueschlesman #godislove #godisgreat #pain #beautyforashes #redemption #jesuschrist https://www.sueschlesman.com
