Welcome to the In Touch Podcast with Charles Stanley for Tuesday, April 14th.

How much of your time is spent worrying about what might happen tomorrow?

Instead of borrowing trouble from the future, discover how to rest in God's strength for today.

Listen and learn how to rely on his sufficient grace for times of trouble.

You know, one of the eras that's going

around today is that if you pray long enough and hard enough and if you believe enough, then God

will change any and every circumstance of life. And that change depends really on whether we have

enough faith or we pray long enough, hard enough, intensely enough. Well, if that's true, then there's one

passage of scripture that we have to look at again. It's the passage that I want to look at today

because I believe this is the pinnacle passage in all the Bible, the mountain peak passage

when it comes to dealing with the grace of God and the light of how it relates to our pain and our suffering and our heartache and our hardship that we endure in life.

All of us are going to experience those things. It may be physical pain as a result of some disease or some accident.

It could be something even worse than that, and that's emotional pain. Because of a broken

home, because of the loss of a loved one, because of loss of finances, because of circumstances

and situation, because it could take a thousand different avenues. There's all kind of causes

of pain. But how does this grace of God, this goodness and graciousness of God, which He pours

out toward us without any regard to our merit or our worth in spite of everything we deserve?

What about this grace of God in our life in the times of pain and suffering and heartache?

And also, what about those things that don't seem to change?

Where is the grace of God when things don't change?

Where is the grace of God when you've prayed and prayed and prayed and

and nothing happens?
