the painful life

Life is full of pain, conflict, issues, and suffering. We all experience heartaches and face struggles in life, and sooner or later, we will go through life-shattering experiences. This page, this corner of my blog, is dedicated to any wrestling through my own pain and suffering, disappointment I face, through the heartaches I see around me, and my attempt in making sense of that in my faith in Jesus and His kingdom.

Every word here comes with a breathed prayer that somehow, all of this will lead me, and you, closer to Him.

Harsh Words

Sometimes, we speak harsh words, quick words, painful words that leave us dumbfounded. Sometimes, words like these hurt us. Sometimes, we hurt others with words like these. But in the midst of such pain, we find hope in Jesus.

Tears Are Falling

We live in a world of pain and war. It’s everywhere we look, and it’s heart-wrenching. I grief with this world, and with the many people that experience injustice. How much more will a God who loves us grieve for the things done to His children?
