We all have to deal with unexpected tragedies and trauma…
““We all have to deal with unexpected tragedies and trauma. Being a believer doesn’t exempt you from life’s turbulent times. The Scripture says rain falls on the just and on the unjust. When you find yourself facing a crisis, it’s easy to give up your happiness, panic, and fall apart. But you have to realize that crisis is not a surprise to God. It may be unexpected to us, but God knows the end from the beginning. God has solutions to problems that we haven’t even had. And God would not have allowed the difficulty unless He had a divine purpose for it.””
