Surviving the Time of Great Distress, Providence Podcast Episode

God cared for the first Christians in their time of distress, and God is caring for us too. We, too, will navigate through it, and as we’re dealing with it all, why not give ourselves over to the comfort of God’s care? 

by Sister Leslie Keener, CDP

For reflection:

  • When you find yourself in a time of great distress, what helps you to cope with all the feelings that emerge? Do you ever share them with God?

  • What helps you to get quiet enough to hear the still, small voice of God offering comfort and care to you?

  • What is God’s call for you in these readings? Maybe you could take some time in quiet with God and see what God has to say.
