1130) Anguish is something that will present itself a few times in life. It really doesn’t matter what has caused it, it brings a heavy storm that causes some people to drown.

In consideration of this difficult thing, questions might follow. Can I help myself or another person amid such turbulent waters? I think the honest answer is yes and no.

Yes, you can help by simply acknowledging the suffering that is present. No, because you cannot make it go away.

The great news is, God knows every detail of our anguish. He knows when we feel hated, disrespected, rejected and, besides acknowledging it, God gives us the strength and love to endure it. The really hard news is, God rarely eliminates it, but if you think about other promises, God will ultimately use this anguish for our good.

Anguish is a place we dread to visit but be encouraged, you will not go through it alone. Psalm 31:11
