Cómo ver a Dios en nuestro dolor

by Bill Crowder Spanish

About this item

¿POR QUÉ SUFRIMOS?

Dolor. Sufrimiento. Aunque cada una de nuestras circunstancias es única, estas experiencias en común presentan esta gran pregunta: «¿Por qué?». ¿Por qué? intenta buscar la raiz y las causas de nuestro dolor y sufrimiento desde una perspectiva bíblica. El sufrimiento es en realidad un subproducto de uno de los regalos más grandes de Dios para su creación: el regalo de la elección. Y ejercer esa libertad de elección puede resultar en grandes dificultades y desafíos. La buena noticia es que Dios también conoce el sufrimiento (por nuestros pecados), y no solo entiende nuestro dolor sino que también promete estar con nosotros al experimentarlo.

Why do we suffer?

Pain and suffering. While each of our circumstances is unique, these common experiences beg that one big question, “Why?” Why? seeks to trace the root and causes of our pain and suffering from a biblical perspective. Suffering is actually a byproduct of one of God’s greatest gifts to His creation—the gift of choice. And exercising that freedom of choice can result in great difficulties and challenges. The good news is that God also knows suffering—for our sins—and that He not only understands our pain, but He promises to be with us in it.
