Howdy, ya'll. I just published a book on suffering, written largely from personal experience, and taking insights from the book of Job. It is written as a 31-day devotional to give to someone who is suffering or somebody who has to care for a sufferer. Of course this would include people caring for people with cancer or long-term illnesses. Both the sufferer and the caretaker need great encouragement and this book is designed to do just that.
There is a poor theological understanding among many Christians that all suffering comes as chastisement as a result of our sins. Even though that's the first thing we think of, that somehow or other we deserve what we're getting. The person of Elihu in the Bible in the book of Job gives nine of the reasons that God permits suffering in our lives. If you've ever wondered what they are, please take the time to read this book.
If it's a blessing to you or an encouragement in any way, would you please leave me an honest review on Amazon because it might help that book get in the hands of somebody else who is hurting? It seems like the pain never stops.
