"description":"July 02, 2006. The Church of Jesus Christ is filled with people of a wavering faith. Jesus allows us to go through various trials and He delays His coming when a situation is not impossible enough to the intent and purpose that He can produce an unwavering faith in our heart.

"description":"June 28, 2009 - Today many Christians are suffering with various afflictions and trials. In these seasons we have a tendency to question God's faithfulness and doubt that He will answer our prayers. When our problems go from bad to worse and the answer doesn\u2019t seem to come, there is a bitterness that begins to rise up. We can do one of two things. We can either turn to the Lord and trust in His Word or charge God with \"Fatherly negligence\". God knows and cares! We have a heavenly Father who knows about agony so much so that He allowed His own Son to die on a cross and suffer so that we may be comforted in all our afflictions. God Knows and God Cares!",
