Sweetie, we are all here to help support each other. If we didn't, then what would give meaning to our experiences? What would be the purpose of suffering? I think we humans are meant to go through hard times because they humble us, and because they make us empathetic with others who are in distressing circumstances.

I think of and pray for you too, my friend. As much as I hate what's happening in my life right now, I believe the Lord knows what He is doing and that He has a plan for my husband and me. I may not agree with it, and I will most certainly protest it if I don't; but I also know He can handle it.
