What should we do in times of suffering?

When facing suffering, Scripture encourages us to cast our cares upon the Lord, for He cares for us (1 Peter 5:7). Instead of relying on our own strength or understanding, we are called to seek refuge in Christ. The narrative in Judges 19 acts as a stark reminder of human darkness, yet it points to the light of Christ who comes to comfort and redeem. Believers are encouraged to approach God in prayer, cling to His promises, and rely on the church community for support, as these avenues lead us back to the comforting presence of God during trials (James 1:2-4).
