Lewis realized, “If I had really cared, as I thought I did, about the sorrows of the world, I should not have been so overwhelmed when my own sorrow came.”3 Our own suffering is often our wake-up call.

He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain” (Revelation 21:3–4)”
