Healthy in Him: A 3-Day Devotional for Wellness & Wholeness

When we face suffering and difficulties, they can be a severe test of our faith. But our very faith in God can also give new hope. The Bible shows us a way from sorrow to trust when we bring our distress to God in a lament.

Out of Context

Sometimes life's difficulties cause us to feel overwhelmed, but God's Word is full of hope – hope in the gospel.
