In Our Suffering, Lord Be Near is a collection of poetry intended to invite readers to share life's most challenging, difficult, and miserable experiences together. A very painful chapter of the author's life led to the writing of this book. Aside from reflecting who he is today, the book is also a reflection of his heart, mind, body, and soul. It is the author's hope that through his book readers will find encouragement as they navigate through their own hardships. Readers are challenged to bring their trials and emotions that threaten to consume them before the Lord. The Lord's mercy, grace, and peace will bring hope and strength to those who are hurting. It is inevitable that we will face difficulties living in a fallen, sinful world. However, the Lord desires that we cast our burdens on Him. We will find spiritual healing by doing so.
The book is divided into sections as follows.
From Crisis to Safety
From Despair to Lament
From Defiance to Submission
From Grief to Rescue
From Wandering to Obedience
From Crossroads to Justice
From Relilience to Strength
From Redemption to Deliverance
From Praise to Adoption
