00:07true happiness and today we're going to talk about the reality of suffering yeah
00:13honest to understand that because before we know how we can find happiness let's
00:18see if in a world of suffering let's even understand the suffering that we're
00:22facing suffering is an undeniable part of the human experience I mean God
00:26doesn't really promise that we're not gonna struggle or we're not gonna suffer
00:29and from personal struggles to global you know crisis pain and hardship affects
00:34us all let's acknowledge the reality of suffering and its impact on our lives one
00:38of the most profound questions we face is why everybody's asking themselves why
00:42why do bad things happen to good people why do we suffer you know the Bible offers
00:47some some insights into this question but also acknowledges that sometimes we may
00:51not always have all the answers looking at the story of Job in Job 38 verse 42 and
00:56suffering can significantly impact our pursuit of happiness it can lead to
01:00feelings of despair hopelessness and discontentment let's explore how suffering
01:04affects our well-being and our ability to experience happiness the Bible is filled
01:09with stories of people who suffer their fun hope and happiness in their
01:12relationship with God let's look at examples like Job, Joseph and Paul who faced
01:16incredible hardship yet remain faithful so I want you to go over and read Job 1-2
01:22book chapter 1-2 Genesis 37 to 50 and 2nd Corinthians 12 verse 17 to 10 how do you
01:29respond to suffering in your life or in the world around you have you ever
01:33struggled with the question on why how do you think the examples of biblical
01:37characters can't inform your own response of suffering God doesn't promise we're not gonna
01:42suffer everybody's going to suffer okay let me let me let me say it this way they are
01:49going to be hard times hard times are going to come but what matters how we face it and
01:55how we overcome it so my question to you is what are you going to do about it you can't just keep on
02:04saying that oh I'm suffering no what are you going to do about how you going to
02:08how you going to stop it suffering is it is it forever you are quit you have to find a
02:17way to end it you can't just sit down and say oh I'm suffering you have to find a way to end it that's that's what
02:25some people are doing now you don't want to look you you don't look for a way to end the
02:28suffering but you just keep on complaining you can't live life by complaining you have to
02:33work movement that's how life works I can't wait to see you again tomorrow as we
