“Jesus doesn't give an explanation for the pain and sorrow of the world. He comes where the pain is most acute and takes it upon himself. Jesus doesn't explain why there is suffering, illness, and death in the world. He brings healing and hope. He doesn't allow the problem of evil to be the subject of a seminar. He allows evil to do its worst to him. He exhausts it, drains its power, and emerges with new life.” WorldGivingProblemChristianPainDeathSufferingEvilHopeJesusHealingPowerWorstSubjectsSorrowIllnessChristian InspirationalExplanationNew LifeDrainsSeminarsPain And SorrowProblem Of EvilIllness And Death Author:N.

“There is a Restlessness springing from the consciousness of power not fully utilized, which must be present wherever there is unused power of whatever kind. This is the restlessness of the germ within the seed, struggling upward and downward towards its proper life.it is a striving full of pain, the cutting of tender flesh by the fetters of the captive as he struggles against their pitilessness.” KindPainConsciousnessPowerStruggleCuttingStriveSeedsFleshFrustrationGermsRestlessnessCaptivesFetters Author:Anna Brackett
