Show Notes

Isaiah 63:9

Trials, tests, crises, disappointments, heartbreak, rejection, and various other sorrows that invade our lives often cause us to ask questions. If God is so loving and good, why this loss, this pain, and struggle in my life? The atheist will answer cynically; it is because there is no God. But the Christmas story is part of God’s answer to our question. There is another way to deal with ‘the human condition.’ We can discover that God is sufficient for us in life’s darkest moments. There are amazing things that God can and wants to reveal to us in those moments. We can encapsulate the message with a word that comes from the book of Isaiah. God experiences the pain with us and then moves to bring redemption to our situation. “In all their distress, he too was distressed, and the angel of his presence saved them. In his love and mercy, he redeemed them; he lifted them up and carried them all the days of old (Isaiah 63:9).”
