Why do we suffer? How can I understand my suffering? Why do I have to be bruised and hurt? Where does difficulty lead me? When we are being matured, God uses many methods to achieve his goal.
In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, Bruised but Not Broken, by author Terry Atkinson, offers a Biblically based understanding of sickness and human suffering. He tells the story and explains the history of the bruised reed in Matthew 12:20.
Through an allegory of Christian life, Terry Atkinson addresses many of the questions about why we suffer, and he sheds light and understanding to the heart and to our sometimes-muddled intellect. When darkness falls, Bruised but Not Broken helps you look for the shining moon, and when day breaks, it will help you look for the rising sun and to rise with it.
