Нақшаҳои хониши ройгон ва садоқатҳои марбут ба Lamentations 1:1

Does suffering ever cause you to wonder if God is punishing you? Through study of God's word, reflection and prayer, let this 4-day plan help you draw closer to God in difficult times.

Why do bad things happen to good people? Why there is so much suffering in life? When life feels unfair, and the world feels broken, you need to know there’s a God who understands and wants to restore all things. In this plan, you will learn how grieving, hoping, and gratitude can help you make sense of your suffering.

We all experience great loss- a relationship, a job, a loved one, or simply life as it once was. We’re sure that life is not supposed to be this way and so we grieve and mourn for what could have been. And we’re not alone. Join us for the fourth week of a 5-part plan that will help us learn the language and heart of lament in Scripture.

Most likely written by the prophet Jeremiah, Lamentations is a collection of poems mourning the siege of Jerusalem and the coming exile of Judah. Despite the wickedness of God’s people that led to their captivity, the writer reminds his readers the loyal love and mercy of the Lord are truly new every morning (Lamentations 3:22-23). Even in deep darkness, God is our portion, our hope, and our salvation.

In difficult times, do you feel like God is silent? The book of Lamentations offers a language for times when you feel alone in sorrow. Lamentations invites you to pour out your most difficult emotions in prayer and to return to the God who loves you and is working all things together for good. In this five-day series, read through the book of Lamentations and consider God's steadfast love.

In this series, you’ll explore what it means to develop a faithful approach to hardship and suffering by reflecting on various Biblical principles and stories. From acknowledging the sovereignty of God in our struggles to learning how to express yourself honestly before Him, each part walks you through different facets of enduring trials. You’ll also learn about the role of silence in God’s presence, how to grieve well, and how to tell your own story in the context of His purpose. This series offers encouragement, Biblical wisdom, and practical applications for walking through hardship with faith.
