Job 2:10

Hierdie 5-dag-leesplan sal lesers herinner aan God se blywende liefde, en sal hulle bemoedig om hul seënings te tel en elke dag voluit te leef. Elkeen van die vyf dae handel oor ’n spesifieke tema (soos om te fokus op die positiewe en om altyd dankbaar te lewe) en sluit ’n toepaslike gebed en Bybelvers in. Die inhoud vir hierdie leesplan is gebaseer op Nina Smit se “God is aan jou kant”. 

These are unprecedented times for those of us who are alive on planet earth at this moment. Historically, we can find hope if we turn to the One who made it all and is Lord of all. What does the Bible say about why these things happen, what is God’s response to it, and what is my hope in life and death?

Suffering is the one experience which binds all of humankind together. But why does it exist? What purpose does it serve? Like so many of us, Job was a person who didn’t deserve the immense pain that entered his life. It was at his lowest point when God showed up and provided one of the most challenging and powerful answers to the problem of pain the world has ever heard.

Life is full of setbacks, losses, disappointments, and pain. “The Art of Overcoming” will help you deal with loss, grief, and hurt. It’s about refusing to allow the things that look like endings to discourage or derail you. Instead, let God turn them into beginnings. When life is confusing and difficult, don’t give up. Look up. No matter what difficult moment or painful loss you’re facing, God is with you.
