MR: MR (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798180318077)

Some kinds of suffering rearrange a life so completely that time itself feels different afterward.

Chronic illness, traumatic injury, unrelenting pain, and long medical uncertainty have a way of following us into ordinary days-greeting us before our feet touch the floor and sitting beside us through sleepless nights. In those long valleys, the heart begins to ask questions it never expected to ask: Does God still see me? Why does heaven sometimes feel silent?

Written by a pastor who has carried chronic pain for nineteen years, The Savior Who Stays offers twenty-eight short daily devotions for the weary, the waiting, and those in constant pain. It refuses to hand out shallow answers or pretend the suffering feels easy. Each day sets a single verse before you and spends about five quiet minutes there-honest about the exhaustion, the fear, and the prayers that seem to go unanswered, yet always pointing to the One who stays.

In these pages you will find:

• Twenty-eight five-minute readings, one tender verse a day
• Honest comfort for chronic illness, disability, injury, depression, and caregiving
• A reflection question, a practical encouragement, and a prayer for every day
• The companionship of a fellow sufferer rather than easy answers

One of the most repeated phrases in Scripture is, "And it came to pass." Nowhere does it say, "And it came to stay." Your pain has not come to stay-but the Savior has.

The Savior Who Stays is the first volume in the Quiet Moments with Christ series of devotionals.
