Bitter or Better?
Keeping a proper perspective on God is the best way to endure and find meaning in suffering. This week, Ptr. Michael Cariño says that Job’s story doesn’t help us understand the reasons for suffering. Instead, Job’s story invites us to trust that our wise, powerful, and just God knows exactly what he’s doing.
