Seek the Lord while he may be found;
call on him while he is near.
Let the wicked forsake his way
and the evil man his thoughts
Let him turn to the Lord, and he will have mercy on him,
and to our God, for he will freely pardon
"For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways" declares the Lord
As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts higher than your thoughts
(Isaiah 55:6-9)
In life there is suffering.
Whatever way we choose to look at it, there is suffering is this world, and this suffering can affect us. In life and faith, almost everyone will have experienced a time when we feel distressed, insecure and sometimes even desperate. However, in these times it is important to remember to seek the Lord. Suffering never ends as just suffering in life of Faith. In contrary, these moments are the times that we can seek the Lord, and meet Him.
When a child is healthy, its mother will often pay very little attention, and let her baby run around around freely. However, when the baby becomes sick or in despair, the Mother comes closer. Like a Mother that gathers her sick child in her arms - so God pays closer attention when we are sick too.
