Common Questions Answered
Illness can be discouraging — especially when it feels as though God hasn’t answered your prayers for healing. In those moments, it’s easy to wonder if He still hears you. But even in weakness, God is near. It is often in our most fragile moments that His strength and greatness are revealed.
Remember, God hears every prayer, and His love for you never wavers. You do not have to face this battle alone or rely on your own strength. God invites you to rest in Him, to trust in His plan, and to let Him fight for you.
Paul understood this when he pleaded with God to remove the thorn from his side. Yet God reminded him, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness” (2 Corinthians 12:9). Because of this, Paul could say, “For when I am weak, then I am strong” (v.10). Rest in that truth today — God’s grace is enough, His strength is perfect, and His love is unshakable.

Though this time feels hard, I trust in Your healing power and Your promise that all things work together for good for those who love You. Please help me to understand any purpose You have for this season and to receive Your wisdom and comfort with a grateful heart. Thank You for Your grace, for always being by my side, and for the hope that You will heal in Your perfect timing. Amen.
Desiring the approval of those we love most is natural, but when we don’t receive it, it can be deeply painful. Feelings of rejection can lead to distance and even cause us to say, “I’m done, and I don’t care anymore.” But no matter how much we insist that we don’t care, it often catches up to us emotionally and spiritually. Thankfully, God understands our hurt and calls us to pursue reconciliation.
The Bible says, “If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you” (John 15:7). When we walk in God’s will, we can bring our requests to Him and trust that He will provide what is best. Ask God to work in your heart, to give you peace, and to show you His way forward in your relationships.
Remember, you are not alone in this. Scripture reminds us to “Cast all your anxieties on Him, because He cares for you” (1 Peter 5:7). God cares about what troubles you. Give Him your burdens and allow Him to bring healing, understanding, and reconciliation in His perfect time.

Please give me the humility and love to seek reconciliation with (name), so that in this, I may be Your ambassador of peace and grace. Amen.
Loneliness can be a heavy burden, leaving us feeling unseen and unheard. Yet God’s Word reminds us that we are never truly alone. Jesus said, “And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age” (Matthew 28:20). His presence is constant, even in the quiet moments when we feel forgotten.
God also promises to listen and respond when we call out to Him. “Then you will call, and the Lord will answer; you will cry for help, and He will say: ‘Here I am’” (Isaiah 58:9). What a comforting truth — that the Creator of all things bends His ear toward those who seek Him.
When you feel isolated or unseen, remember that God is near. He hears your prayers, understands your heart, and promises to be with you always.
You are never alone, and you are deeply loved by God.

At times we may wonder what God’s plan is for our lives, especially when the path ahead feels uncertain. Yet Scripture reminds us that God not only knows our needs but also provides for them. “And my God will supply every need of yours according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:19).
We can rest in the truth that God’s plans are good and full of purpose. He declares, “For I know the plans I have for you… plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope” (Jeremiah 29:11). Even when we cannot see the full picture, we can trust that His hand is guiding us.
Seek to understand God’s plan for your life by reading His Word and praying for wisdom. He will reveal His direction in His perfect time. His plans for you are filled with hope.

As believers, it can be difficult to understand why God allows His followers to suffer and face hardships. Yet the Psalmist reminds us, “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit” (Psalm 34:18). This assures us that God does not abandon us in our trials. Instead, He draws us nearer to Himself through our pain.
Paul encourages us with these words: “Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all” (2 Corinthians 4:16-18). Our present struggles are temporary and are preparing us for a glory that is eternal and beyond measure.
This hope is echoed in the 23rd Psalm: “Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil.” Though we face suffering, we are assured that God is with us and will bring us through to deliverance. Take comfort today in knowing that God’s presence never leaves you, and His eternal promises will sustain you.

Father God, we ask for Your strength, wisdom, and faith as we face pain and suffering. Please fill us with hope and confidence, reminding us that You hold us close and never cast us aside.

Marriage can be challenging for many of us. It is not always easy to cultivate and maintain a strong, healthy relationship. Because of our natural desire to have things “our way,” being a servant to our spouse often doesn’t come naturally. Yet Paul’s words in 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 remind us of what love truly looks like: “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not boast, it is not proud… It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.” Through these verses, Paul teaches us to endure marital challenges with hope and perseverance.
Marriage may be hard, but we are called to keep the faith and strive to treat our spouse as Jesus calls us to—with love, patience, and forgiveness. Forgiveness is one of the most important ingredients for a healthy and successful marriage. Though it is sometimes difficult, we must always remember that Christ has forgiven us and calls us to forgive others.
When it comes to children, Scripture teaches, “Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from Him” (Psalm 127:3). Despite the challenges, heartaches, and struggles, children are a blessing from God. This calls us to show unconditional love, patience, and understanding. Since these traits do not come naturally, we must ask God to grant us strength, wisdom, and courage to model for our children as the Lord has modeled for us. The parable of the Prodigal Son exemplifies the unconditional love and forgiveness we are called to reflect in our families.
You are not alone in these challenges. God’s grace and strength are always available to guide and sustain you.

Losing a loved one can be overwhelming — at times too overwhelming to comprehend. Thankfully we are not called to bear burdens alone; it’s a process we can work through with God and others. The Bible says, “Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted” (Matthew 5:4). We are called to seek God, walk in His ways and allow Him to comfort us, especially by reading the Bible.
We are not called to be alone. Seeking godly counsel from a Gospel-preaching pastor and godly friends is helpful, as we are called to “mourn with those that mourn” (Romans 12:15). Seek God and ask Him to direct you and comfort you. Remember, Psalm 34:18 says, “God is close to the brokenhearted.” You are deeply loved by God.

Fear in today’s political and cultural climate is real and can feel overwhelming, but none of this is unknown to God, and He calls us to place our trust in Him. Jesus reminds us, “In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world” (John 16:33).
When fear arises, cry out to Jesus and share your worries with Him. He promises to help you overcome them. Isaiah 41:10 encourages us, “Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”
Remember, you are never alone during uncertain times. Bring your fears to God and trust His capable hands to hold and guide you.

The challenges we face in life can feel overwhelming—sometimes more than we can bear. Yet Jesus reminds us in Matthew 6:25-34 to seek the Lord first during difficult times, because He already knows our needs and cares deeply for us. He tells us not to be anxious about our daily needs or what lies ahead, for God will provide according to His perfect plan and timing.
Though things may not look the way we want or fit into our schedule, we are encouraged not to be anxious about anything, but to pray about everything with thanksgiving. In response, God promises to give us peace that guards our hearts and minds (Philippians 4:6-7).
God is a loving and faithful Father. As Psalm 23:4 says, “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me.” No matter what you face today, remember that God is never early or late. He wastes nothing we go through and uses it all for our good and His glory.
