But when suffering strikes--especially seemingly senseless suffering--we are filled with doubt and stunned by events spiraling beyond our control. In the midst of suffering, we often question the very foundation of our faith--our belief in the God who says he loves us. Since our trust and obedience rest on God's character, the questions that life's tragedies force us to...

It's not what I lost. It's what I've found. I was only seventeen, just a girl, when God asked me for everything I had...my health, my hopes, my independence, my dreams, my freedom, and my mobility.
