[suffering is something we all have in common. the earth is groaning, the effects of sin both deep and wide, and all of us have felt the aches of the fall. there were and still are days when it feels as if the darkness will not lift. we are all truly desert dwellers, wandering in the wilderness, often feeling that help is the last thing we want to ask for just in case we come off weak or needy. the daily hill is so steep.]
