Daily Word: Perspective
James 1:2-4 -- The word of God teaches that we should count it all joy when we experience trials. But the world along with our feelings oftentimes tells us to call it quits when we are suffering.

Listen to the Daily Word for encouragement to have the biblical perspective on pain.

Daily Word: Care
John 11:3, 7-8

Daily Word: Compassion
John 11:33-36
How do we provide hope to people that are hurting without being dismissive of their pain? The word of God gives us direction on how to be people of compassion so we can bring the love of the Lord to people who are hurting. Hear how to meet people where they are and walk with them to the place that God has for them to be. -
Daily Word: Expectant
We will respond to our Redeemer based on what we have seen and/or see or what he says. The Bible encourages us to take God at his word and be expectant that he will perform his promises. I pray this post encourages us all to respond to the hope we have in Jesus and not the hurt that we experience in this world.
