Message in Brief

In this message, Pastor Ratna Maitra addresses the anguish felt when God seems distant in times of trouble, drawing from Psalm 10:1. During trials like the COVID-19 pandemic, people often question why hardship occurs. Instead of questioning God or playing the blame game, believers are urged to examine themselves, turn away from sin, and avoid grieving the Holy Spirit. God is compassionate, long-suffering, and attentive to the cries of the humble. Through repentance, studying His Word, and trusting His character, believers receive strength, knowing God is a refuge in distress and actively works to help and deliver those who seek Him in faith.

Key Truths

  • Questioning God during distress should lead us to self-examination rather than blaming Him.
  • God is long-suffering, grieves with us in our pain, and does not abandon His creation.
  • True hope and deliverance come when we stop hurting others and humbly seek God in faith.
