Trusting God when hard things happen

                                                                         
In Proverbs 3:5-6 it says "Trust in the Lord with all of your heart and lean not on your own understanding, but in all of your ways acknowledge him and He will make  your paths straight.


This seems like a common sense passage to follow, but when a person goes through extremely painful circumstances they quickly learn how difficult it is to apply the word of God. It seems that many of us would rather take matter sin our own hands and find out the root cause for our suffering.


I learned how difficult it was to trust when our daughter died suddenly the night of June 10th, 2007.  Until this had occurred I was under the belief that as long as we attended church, got involved in Spiritual activities, and did godly things with other believers that no harm would come to us.  Only after did I realize that even as Christians we are not immune to suffering.


In this video you are going to hear about a couple who lost their business  and their daughter in the same time frame and what it took to get through the pain.
