We cry, grieve, mourn, for a time and allow God's comfort to heal us. Focus on things above. This is a temporal realm and it and your life and the lives of others will pass and move on. Christians grieve differently than others for the loss of a loved one because they know they will see them again. Any Christian who dies is with the LORD and better off. Be happy for them because the passed on out of this miserable world, out of their pain and suffering.
Funny - that was exactly what my husband said. He said this world is misery and pain. I've certainly borne out that truth.
If you play with fire, you will get burned. People learn hard lessons in life -- sometimes it's better for that rape victim's life to be taken, to end her pain. Of course, this girl may have not been a Christian. In that case, she was punished and judged. What she went through is nothing compared to being thrown in the Lake of Fire.
Her music teacher was interviewed and she was a Christian. She kept a diary and she spoke of her struggle with her faith. I don't understand - why would God allow her to be born - a beautiful healthy child - only to reach being a teen and humiliated and murdered and thrown in the snow like trash. Where is God? Can we expect the same? Are God's promises of help meaningless? I have a Christian friend who skates by without all I've had. It feels so unfair.
CBD may help. Most pain is caused by inflammation. So there are natural cures for inflammation, like CBD or turmeric. There are foods that you eat that cause inflammation.
Paul was afflicted with something and asked God to remove it and He said no. He evidently thought he needed to suffer with it. Again, we look at Job's live and realize we don't have it too bad. Look at a person with no limbs or deaf and blind and we quickly realize that our condition is not so bad and stop complaining.
My husband bought me CBD but I didn't use it because Melissa Etheridge was arrested for having it for cancer pain. I do take things for inflammation. I know there are others worse off - but why even have such misery?
The lesson may not be for even that person, but for everyone around them who sees her perseverance. God tells us to persevere through the trials and tribulation.
