Those of us that have children know how much we hurt, even physically, when on of our children suffer. Even the childhood mishaps and scrapes woult tear my heart apart. I wanted to take all the suffering off of them and bear it.

My guest in this podcast, Tracy Ripley lived through the drama of a child with congenital heart disease. Through it all she relied on her faith in the love of our Lord. Tracy knew she was not alone. This helped her deal with the issues and grow spiritually.

I invite you to listen to her story and her deep faith in a God who is always true to His promises. Listen to the hope she holds dear in her heart.

Tracy is an author, life coach, and advocate for children with Congenital Heart Disease (CHD). She wrote a wonderful book called, "Prayer Warrior Mom". You can learn more about Tracy and her ministry by going to: https://subscribepage.io/PrayerfulWarriorOpt-In

If there is anything we share it is that all of us have experienced suffering at some level. I often marvel at the resiliance and grace others express as I know the suffering they are enduring.

A question that is often asked is why God allow suffering. Isn't He all powerful and all loving? How then can He allow suffering to happen to His greatest creation.

In this episode I try to present some thoughts about this question. I don't have all the answers. In fact, I continue also to have questions. But this I know. I serve a loving God who gave His Son Jesus to suffer so that one day I and others can see an end to all suffering as we stand in His presence.
