—Lamentations 1:16-21
by: Irene B. Saunders.
We must give God our fears before they become rebellion and blame. A young child with cancer is a terrible thing. Whatever the reason, we must not blame God. When we accept Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross, we recognize it was our punishment put upon him. God is not punishing the sick child or his parents if they are believers. God does discipline us for our good; however, we can grow spiritually as we give God our fears and place our trust in his wonderful care. “The Lord is with us” (Nehemiah 14:9).
