Bad news can shake the body, mind, and emotions. Christians are not called to pretend hard things do not hurt. But we are called to remember who God is. The Lord remains sovereign, wise, good, and near even when the news is painful. Faith does not require you to know the outcome. Faith rests in the One who does. Bring your grief to God, ask for wisdom, seek counsel, and obey what is clear. The Christian does not need to minimize suffering in order to trust God.
