At moments like these [pain, struggle, suffering],
Jesus never delivered sermons about judgment
or the need to accept God's mysterious providence.
Instead he responded with compassion---
a word from Latin which simply means "to suffer with"---
and comfort and healing.
God stands on the side of those who suffer.
-- Phillip Yancey
beautiful, shelley... great words to ponder and absorb...
